If you were building a stroker for your dd what would you build 331 or a 347

 

Since I'm building a 331 for my '65 Fairlane, I guess I should vote there. The reason I chose that was simply because the kit was on sale for $400 less than the 347 kit at the time I bought it.

I wouldn't shy away from either for a properly built engine. Just make sure the pistons you get with the 347 kit don't have the piston pins going through the oil ring as is the case with the first kits made. Newer kits don't have this problem.

 

isnt the answer obvious?

theres no replacement for displacement. 347

 

exactly why not get all of the cubes you can?

don't listen to the myths about he rod ration on burning oil.

347 or nothing

 

Depends on what I plan on doing.. If im going to run NA than 347 but if I plan on supercharging then 331. But thats me. Where all different.

 

why not a supercharged 347? a supercharged 347 should max out the block

 

347, why not go all out?

wait I vote 460[&:]

I'd go with 331, so I didn't have to worry about the motor as much.

 

elaborate please
