Oh, well in that case get a 351[8D] Stronger and you can stroke it more than a 5.0

Myth.

331 and 347 both still have steep rod angles. Buy the kit and have the machine work done to the block. You try to go cheap, youll end up with a cheaply running engine in the long run.

Do it right and have no problems.

Uhhhh No, the only thing you will need is a taller hood (if your going EFI) and maybe different headers

Plus the correct oil pan, intake manifold, Distributor, will need different headers, and you will need the drive train to back it up
