Not really, except for the fact that you may not want the piston ring pack
that close to the crown due to heat build up. See how close the top ring is
to the piston top

I don't think you need to worry about side loading on that block if you
destroke it and use longer rods
The long stroke and short rods are  what cuases the high cylinder wall loads
on the stock 400

3 side by side with 3 inch tubing full length from compressor to throttle
body ( converted 4 barrel Holley base with tps and IAC)

I have DFI ECU, harness,software.cable and spare ECU to control extra
injectors for sale.
 Interested?
