Default Question about 347

Alright I have a 94 5.0 and I am planning on stroking it to a 347. I want to know what the best head/intake combo would be to use with a turbo. I was thinking about AFR 220cc heads. would this be alright or what other heads would be best for the turbo. I plan on pushing 13 psi or somewhere around there. Also what cam should I use. I have a T56 tranny and 4.10 gears. I want the best street performance so it has to be streetable and still be quick on the strip. Prices dont matter just need to know what to go with. any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

If price doesnt matter I hope you are dumping that flimsy block and going with an A4 block? I would also scratch that 347 for various reasons but that's up to you.

go with a 351W instead,
it will make more power than 347, have a stronger block, and cost a LOT less than a 347.
will bolt up in same location and most everything swaps over.

I can break anything, give me enough rpm. My motto from my cleveland days is "Been there broke that" We have broken Darts, A4's, Stock Blocks, you name it I have broken it. All in the name of testing mind you lol

AFR's would be great 205's would rock.

you want to get a custom cam ground for your set-up. It will cost a little more
but will give you the most power.

I like the TrickFlow R series intake manifold personally and they make one
that fits the 351.

Default RE: Question about 347

if I want to stick with my 5.0 for now should I stroke it to a 347 or 331 . What about high rpm stability how far would I be able to push it or what could I go to and keep it reliable
