Sounds interesting- whether you'll be putting the Hudson rods into a GMC, or figuring a way to bolt the GMC head to a Hudson shortblock!!! :-D

Heck, this is LSR.  What makes you think he's not trying to fit this all onto a 217 Graham inline?  :wink:

Actually other than the length, PE and BE I am pretty sure they are close to a Busa.  The width and bearing tang placement are not the same I am sure.. :cheers:   :mrgreen:

USING THE HUDSON RODS YOU CAN USE A SHORTER PISTON. WEIGHT IS LESS, ROD WEIGHT IS LESS. YOU CAN LOSS 16 OZ IN EACH HOLE. THATS 6 LBS LESS  WEIGHT TO SWING ON THE CRANK.  STILL LOOKING FOR A BIG PORT GMC HEAD
