is it a daily driver??? supercharger, NOS, cams, and intake monifold will do over 400 easy. also look into long tube headers and o/r h- or x-pipe

The 347 kit will give you torque like a freakin diesel. If you are planning to go forced induction you will want to keep your compression down though. More boost with less compression yeild bigger power numbers. Keep that in mind. With that kind of stroke make sure that you get everything ballanced, not only will it give you better power numbers again, but will make your engine last longer(that is one of the reasons the rice engines last so long). Port and polish those new heads, because with a stroker you will need all the airflow that you can get. Long runners on the intake will help fill those cylinders fill, again port and polish, make for sure that you gasket match everything. Go with mid lenth headers, at 400 hp you can go with 2.5 to 3 inch piping the difference wont be much(I would go with 3" because it sounds meaner). Get a straight through muffler,(forget flowmaster) if you can look through it that is a good thing. Notice I forgot cats.<IMG src=smileys/smiley2.gif border="0">

ifit is a daily driver the 347 with 400 plus hp will loose driveability because if the insane torque it puts out.the big block is a good idea. you dont need the heads for it is already making the power you want, and im not sure how much power it will give you. only thing to worry about is emissions. since it is a dd you will need some kind of mufflers to keep the cops off you and you will needcats to pass emissions. it wont pass without it. looks good though. to convert to carb you can pretty much throw away your ecu (<IMG src=smileys/smiley4.gif border="0">) and you will need new cable stuff. you will need new fuel lines to get to the carb also.
