Default Which is better?

Should I get a turbo for my 302 (ported heads, f cam, cobra intake, 24lb injectors, bbk headers, 373 gears, x pipe) or should I buy a 347 stroker (my friend is selling a brand new one he never installed bedfore he wrecked his stang ($1500)? Which will give me the best power gain?

347 if it's the long block that's not a bad price if it has decent heads...you can get a tubo anytime..but a decent price for a 347 may not come everyday of the week

I have to agree with him ^ Turbo kits are everywhere. New stroker kits for less than 2500 are very few and far between. Stroke it!!! If you dont want to, hell, give me his info, I'll buy a stroker kit for 1500 haha.
