if you say so........................my advice sell the pro-comp heads and f-cam, get some decent heads and do a 347 if using a stock block........save the boost idea for when you have a good aftermarket block, I'm not one for throwing boost on a stock block unless it's low boost and a stud girdle is a total waste on a stock block it'll do nothing, main studs are all you need on the bottom end .........cap walk is the issue that causes the blocks to split and girdles do not stop that......keep rpm's below 6k for it to live and avoid cap walk. build the 347 right and it'll beat most low boost 302 set ups, my h/c/i 89 vert with 12 psi runs right with my n/a 85 gt with a 347, both trap 120+ in the 1/4, the 85 has the edge.
I'll keep the stroker kit idea in mind. In all honesty I'm going to sit on this setup N/A for awhile. I just spent a couple mortgage payments on finishing the build.
What are your thoughts on victor jr heads?
If I do a serious engine build, it will be either be with a boss or dart block.

I'll end up selling the pro comp heads when I do my swap.

Thanks!
She's running right now. Just fixing the kinks and fine tuning it. I'll get a video up soon. Sending units are all out of wack, but I don't expect much with stock 25 year old gauges and sending units that were laying around in my garage.
Clutch was garbage when I went for a test drive, found the clutch cable was frayed and almost completely gone.
Took 4 hours of diagnosing random problems before it was started. From timing, to fuel (dumb friend put the fuel lines on backwards so the return line was getting pressurized lol), spark, grounds, etc.
No surging idle, she purrs at around 900. Just need to fine tune the adjustable clutch I had laying around in my garage and I'll be able to drive her around town so I can fine tune the suspension
