    416 + Hotcam II or 440?

    What would have more hp and torque. What one would be faster all around.

    You do not need to resleeve if you bore to a 416 do you?

    I dunno if 416 would be better then 440.

    426, however, is much faster then the 440 kit. You do not need a resleeve on 416 or 426...

    do the 416 w/ cam, i did and it made a huge difference, probably more reliable too, plus i've heard from a lot of people say that they have a lot of problems with head gaskets blowing out with a 440.

    I don't understand gaskets that well. Do you order them for that size that your going to bore it to or do you modify the gaskets. Thanks for the help.
