The best time to get ahold of Mike is in the evening. That is when I get ahold of him.
To get your crank stroked and all the other parts, it should be around a $1000 give or take. You will have to ask him to get a closer price. I know he has worked with me because I plan on doing all the work myself.
I am looking for my crank to show up today!!! :macho
Are you wanting a 463 or a 493? I don't think he offers a 473.

thanks for the reply !!!

463 .... do you know the rod length of the 463 is it longer or shorter than stock ...

Does the 463 use a 89mm piston ???

Thanks

The rod length he uses is a stock length. He uses an IMS Hot Rod, but can get different if you like.
The bore size is the same as a 426, not exactly sure of the number. I do know that an 89 mm should be a 440. So if you use a 426 plus a 7 mm stroke, that should be a 463. :D
Like I said before just try to get ahold of him in the evening. ;)

oynot is right give mike a call in the evening. he used to make a 473 but i think he wuit making them. He is getting just as much power out of a 463 with less expense and they are more reliable. they both use the same crank but a 473 is a 89mm piston while a 463 is a 88mm piston. I have riden both motors and they rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You should be able to get ahold of mike on the weekends also.
