Why cant gas mileage be in the picture? Why cant you want a fast street car that you can get decent gas mileage with? I dont see the harm in asking a question....

Noone said you were trying to flame him.

you a reason why your always wanting to butt heads?..is it because I kinda called you out on the cam thing?...I take pride in giving good,right info to new or old folks who need it....when I was young it would had been nice to get some answer..easly


as for your ???? stroking an engine isn't a good way if any gas mileage is need would had been better off using a 302 or even a 351....all you can do at this point is work on the little things to help the mileage

When did you ever call me out on a cam question? Im kind of confused here... how am I always trying to butt heads? I dont think I have ever gotten into one single arguement on here yet...

Also, I DO agree that the gas mileage will not be good with ANY kind of stroker motor. You will be alot better off with a built 351W than a built 347.
