This is my first post to this forum. I have a question regarding
specifications of the SBC. Where could I find information on
torque specs and block measurements for the SBC, specifically the 400,
but generally all SBCs? Thanks in advance for the help!!!

This is for a race engine that will be pushing out between 650 and 700 horses.
Also, I used AutoCAD pretty frequently, and I'd like to draw it in 3-D,
just for fun. I'v been looking for a site that shows measurements
that I need to make everything as exact as I can, but I haven't been
able to find anything.
if youre building that kind of power, you should be using performance parts, and every performance part that ive used included a torque spec. like included in the info about the part, no?
Well, stuff like the main and head studs did have manufacturer's torque
specs, but the other things that I previously mentioned are being
re-used. They are in good shape, so I don't see any reason why I
wouldn't be able to re-use them.
What I was looking for was a website, or something similar, that had a
lot of info about the SBCs. I have books on them, but I'd like to
have a quick reference all in one location. Would anyone know of
any performance shops in the Houston area that wouldn't mind answering
questions such as these?
