you can pick up a used supercharger kit for $1800 or so and bolt on and have a 400whp car ....I say best bang for your buck .

I would go with the stroker. I have plans myself to buy/build a 331 stroker. I like it since it dosent push the block to the limits like the 347. I was told you can get more power and reliability out of a stroker verses revving out smaller displacements to get the same horsepower.

On a stock block your going to be able to push 400hp?? A stock block is only good for 6 or 7 psi max, no? Thats like 300-325.

And just out of curosity to the OP.. It says you have a 1996 gt?? We all know the 5.0 didn't come in the 96+ gt's.
