just getting started on my 347. my blocks at the shop being bored an honed for the new forged pistons ,rods crank etc..i have a 95 cobra with a vortech s-trim with tfs heads cam intake etc.. i will be pulling off the heads an intakes too port as well as replaceing the cam an springs to complete the project.i also have a nx kit with just a 75 shot i plan on running with the vortech an replaceing the stock pulley with a 2.75 pulley and anderson power pipe.will this setup work an what kind of power do you think i will be at? also what lift cam should i go with?i will also be changing injectors to 42lbs.i have a 255 lph an the t-rex for fuel an adjustable fuel reg.also new aluminum radiator an high flow water pump.anything else i need ..

might want to look into the oiling issue with the 347 before you sink anymore money into the motor...just a heads up

Oiling issue has been taken care of, as long as he buys the right parts.

oil should not be an issue i got the kit with wrist pins etc.. too prevent oil leakage etc..what are your thoughts on the added power,the smaller pulley an small shot.i know the block is subject. its an 89 302 mexican block i believe maybe good for another 50 hrsp or so over stock?

you didn't say what pistons you have ie flat top,dish,etc.....the piston skirts on the pistons on a 347 are still an issue.. what rings will be use as you need to know this bebore final honing can be done of the walls...I would use the nitous for other than a cooling effect,which will work great if you don't have an intercooler

haha. dont plan on running that blower with those flat tops buddy. unless your heads consist of 70cc chambers, then you mite get away with it, but even a 64cc chamber heads will put your compression ar 10:1. if u really want to run the blower, put dished pistons in to lower your compression. if u do that, then i think ull be good for power. as far as running a 75 shot, i think its a good idea. it will serve u more for cooling down the air coming into your motor like methonl or something. what heads and intake u gonna run?
