It is also a pro bullet so it should be the same as what i ordered.. right? the 306 pro bullet should come with the same stuff as the 331. or i could just go on their site and read what they put in the 331's... this is great

can you put some pics up of the short block? maybe we can tell you what pistons are in it, your looking at a 30-50hp gain and 40-70 ft lb tq more over the 306.

You can get any pistons you want, etc. for different comp ratio's, etc.

Also, you never know if that was just supposed to be someone elses block and you got a fully forged 331, 347, etc.

I dont know if you guys know this but the formula to find out how many cubic inches your engine displaces is .7854 times bore, times bore, times stroke, times number of cylinders..then if you divide that by 61 you get the liters..I learned that in autos, thought it was a nifty bit of info

It's weird they didn't catch it on final inspection. When I ordered my 306 they accidently put together a 351, but they caught it on final inspection, so I didn't get it. But I did get a courtesy call saying my engine would be delayed.....[:@]
