If the engine is turbo'd it will need some support type mods if it's going to survive very.
IMHO, there will be somewhat of a larger total cost involved doing than if you just built a 347.
Think of the cost of a good rotating assembly, not the one advertised for $899.....
Thats only the starter item.....

if you stroke it, then blow it, jsut make sure to use an aftermarket block so you dont split the stock on and pi$$ away money.
also you should head over to http://turbomustangs.com
and check out some of the guys stuff over there on the build forums
