RE: Which Block
you could probably get away with using a stock block with your turbo set up. the stocker can handle around 400 hp but if you want more and have bigger plans you could always go with an R32 block. btw there are people that run 450 rwhp (supercharged) all day long with no problems... just something to think about. but if you want to be save go with the R32 block

RE: Which Block
FYI: found it on the web..., cheap alternative to a Dart Iron Eagle block.
for say if you want to put a blower on a 347 and not spend $3,000 on the block alone.
only place i could find a price was as an upgrade option on new motor for $700 additional
Our 306/331/347 Sporstman Short Block is designed for 600-750hp vehicles looking for a strong foundation for big horsepower. This short block is balanced to 28oz and ready for your big horsepower street or race car. The extra strength of this setup relies upon a 4340 forged steel crankshaft and set of 4340 forged steel H beam rods along with the roller ready FRPP Sportsman 302 block. This block adds 100-150hp of strength over the 85-95 OEM roller blocks due to extra meat in the main webbing area.
