i think if i decided to go with a 347 i'd go with a level 20 D.S.S. block and throw some 185cc heads on it and a trickflow R upper and lower with a custom cam thats boost friendly for the future. i'd also get longtubes

i think i should have around 400 hp/ 430 trq which is PLENTY to make you go, DAMNNN :-D

I am running one. And the driveability is great. It's probably pushing 400 to the wheels, if not a little less. Fully girdled. Mains and rockers.

did you use and recondition your stock block? and how does your power feel? like i said i really dont know what that kind of power feels like. i might be satisfied with it but if not then i should just get a built DSS block that can hold 600hp so i could boost the 347 if i wanted too. i know the stock block can only hold 500hp.

The DSS block is a joke. If you think it's going to hold even 1 more hp than a stock block, you're going to be disappointed.

well for my block in my car as it is how much would it cost for me to get it completely cleaned up and all the nessicary matience done to it for it to be ready for the install of the stroker kit? a few hundred dollars???

what parts should i run to make the most power? like afr 185s or trickflow heads and a custom COMP cam?

could i use my existing street heat intake manifold?
i'd probably put in 30lb injectors as well
