Wondering where is the best place with the best prices on say an Eagle 331 stroker kit. My engine with 204,XXX miles on it is going to need a rebuild in the near future, and I was thinking about going with a stroked 331. Thanks.

91 you know better than that. go striaght to a 347! there is really no reason not to

AdderMk2

exactly..

I swear, if you say anything about oil consumption... imma smack you.

that was a problem with the old 5.4" rod kits.... get one with 5.315 rods, and you will be happier

I don't know, I was thinking about that too, but I was just thinking that I don't plan on building it big enough to suffice the extraci in the 347. Afterall this is my DD, and I do put a lot of miles on it. Maybe I will just do a 306...

I know I am going to regret this question, but what do you all think?

EDIT: Oh and do the 347 kits with 5.315" rods still need the block notching?

AdderMk2

I cant give you a clear cut yes or no on the block notching.... but its very likely.... not like its hard work.

you can still easily DD a 347... I plan on doing it next summer.... My block should be arriving in 2 weeks or so

91hatchgt

That's another question. What block are you going with? I cracked my last stock block in my 91.

DD'ed my old 347 for a while. how long the motor will last directly relates to how well it was put together

adder is using a stock block

how did u crack your last block?

91hatchgt

It had a lot of miles on it when I built it, and the crank walked due to detonation and snapped the crank in half and cracked the #1 and #5 cylinders wide open.

seriously go with the 347.

i ordered my kit monday. calling tmrw to see when my kit should be here
