I would steer away from the hyper pistons for your v-drive boat. Also, why the Stealth for a 502? What heads will you run? What compression ratio are you shooting for?
I ENDED UP WITH A SET OF m-6049-scja HEADS. GOING TO GO WITH
466 CID. Eric @ Diamond Racing SUGESTED M-6250-C460 CAM Ford Racing Performance Parts [M-6250-C460*]
AND Diamond-40401 Big Block Ford 385 Series Street/Strip "KAASE" Dish
I AM HOPEING THE HEAD / PISTON COMBO SHOULD GIVE ME A PUMP FRIENDLY 466.
IF NOT THE Weiand Stealth 8021 (SCJ port) WHAT INTAKE DO YOU
SUGGEST?
CHANGED MY MIND. TURNING MY 429 INTO A 502. WANTING TO BE ABLE TO RUN PUMP GAS. AM I ON TARGET WITH WHAT I PICKED OUT SO FAR?
The P2404 Probe pistons are an incorrect application for the 502 rotating assy and will not fit because they are for a stock stroke 460 with a stock piston pin diameter which is at a ~stock pin location.
My advice is to contact Brian Adams of AD Performance. He will set you up with the exact rotating assy you need, correct pistons, rods, crankshaft, and desired compression ratio.
