I am pretty new to this so forgive me if I ask any ridiculous questions but, I am looking to buy an 87 - 93 GT mustang, manual tranny, within a year or so and and have a few questions before I do. First of all, is there any way to test a block on the spot to see how solid it is before you buy a car. Second, Im looking to get about 350 - 400hp out of it for as cheap as possible. What I plan to do is to stroke the 302 to a 347 and leave the rest as stock as possible. What kind of hp would this change make? And, what other changes would be necessary in order to make my car function properly? Would I need to make any changes to the suspension because of it being stroked? Any help on these couple of topics would be greatly appreciated.

 

welcome..
