Default Couple of 5.0 Questions

i am currently rebuilding a 302 out of a 1994 cobra and am looking for a stroker kit and k-member,control arms,etc keep in mind it is a daily driver and
Should i go with a 332 or 347?
I noticed with both of these strokers you can either buy one for 1,300 or 1,800 whats the difference between these kits?
How does coil over,k-member and control arms affect cornering?
Any advice on this questions would be greatly appreciated

Default RE: Couple of 5.0 Questions

the more expensive one can have higher HP tolerances and could be balanced. some say go with 347, some say 331(which is the 332, but 331 is the common name)(its a 331.6 or something like that)
i went with the 331 just because i felt more comfortable with the life of the piston rings. the 347 tend to burn oil. there is a guy that drives 347 notch cross country and races...he drives it the whole way. its all your preferance and what ur comfortable with. he on hardcore50.com
