What are your opinions on cutting a 350 crank .020 on both the rods and mains. This will be a street engine, not mega high rpm, no nitrous...etc. Just a street driver. Thanks in advance. Kentt

No problem what so ever assuming it is ground correctly
Considering we use 4" stroke stuff with 2" pins & 1.880 pins in some serious stuff
And used to make "9/16" stroker cranks (364") by offset grinding .100 thou
Which is the worst case as you are lowering the overlap,,,
And running them in Blown Alcohol
I don't think .020 is going to be cause for concern :D
