where is this write up lol cause i really want to build a 347 with my dad but i want to know all the facts before i do it. about how much am i looking to spend? because i have to buy some stuff and paint the car first, i have a nice worked motor in there now.

w8less

depends on how fast you want to go

hahah stupid fasstt lol im probably going to just build it and thorw it in late next year. i want to do it right, i learned the hard way with other things on my car, so im going to do it all once and be done.

how fast is stupid fast???....anyway you'll need a decent set of heads and intake and all other supporting mods and when it's all said and done..it would be wise to have a dyno tune done and chip burned...also you'll need to upgrade the fuel system if your looking for a bad to the bone 347...trust me right now ford strokers is building me my 347 short block.. should be to my door in 2-3 weeks

well on my car now i have a 190 pump, cobra injectors(24#) but im getting a supercharger and fuel system for 1300 from my dads friend brand new vortech s trim, and i have a cobra intake now.

Jim from ford strokers recommends a holley systemax intake. An if you go with a supercharger you will have to go up to 30# injectors. Then you have to get the new air mass sensor. Also be sure not to buy flat top pistons if you are going to put a supercharger on it.
