    I'm looking at a 425 Nailhead that is bored out to
    .040 with cast pistons & chrome moly rings.
    I have been told that this is the max overbore for a 425
    nailhead. I want to be able to make the right decision here
    as I already have a 401. I'm told that this 401 is a much better block
    than the 425. But I'd like to have the extra cubes.
    I appreciate all the help in the past.
    Cheers
    IF

    Is it needing bored again or are the walls in good shape?
