I say run a Novi 1000 with upgrades.... get it up to 10+psi, throw on supporting mods and be happy. Only cost about 2,5K including everything.

Stroke and balance it with forged internals.......that way your engine is already badass and you can put whatever you want on it when the time comes.

If your thinking about a 347 you might as well buy forged internals for it anyways. Then you can decide your path from there, nitrous, turbo, s/c or heads. (And by path I mean getting the correct compression ratio etc)
