this is what im thinking.. it might be a bit OVERKILL on the strength side, but for its price, and ratings, this is something well worth the money.. tell me what you think.
reverse dome, -20.1cc there is also another one just like this with -14cc reverse dome..

thats what im trying to figure out, i mean yea they are both still 302 based right? but what is this i keep hearing about 347's and 363's bein bad on oil for street driving??? i dont WANT the extra cubes, but if i ABDSOLUTELY have to have them to get 475-500 to the wheels with the procharger, i guess i'll just have to suck it up and go that way.Originally posted by TENGRAM View PostLeave a comment:

forgot to add. the rest of the setup will be- TKO 600 tranny, alluminum driveshaft, 3.55 rear end gears, moser 31 spline axles, ( after 5 lug conversion ) and then 16" weld wheels front and back. rears will be tall but nothing more than what it is now, cant remember the treadwall.Leave a comment:

i give up, soo,,....
this is what im going to do now...
since NOBODY,, as in ( performance shops etc etc... ) can understand WHAT i want as far as an engine build, im just going to do it myself with the help of my dad and my uncle. i have tried and tried with damn near everybody, but they dont understand what i want and why i want it that way. its simple, all i want is a rock solid dart block, preferably 331 c.i. with a forged/balanced crank, forged connecting rods, forged pistons ( dished for lower compression ) trickflow or AFR heads that would work well for boost, and of course a cam, intake manifold throttle body that will be easy on the street, and of course deliver max performance under pressure.... its THAT easy... i've lowered my HP goal to 475-500 at the wheels, so i dont understand why they all try telling me that its going to be NORTH of 15,000 for just the engine, nothing else... its either that or they all try telling me i need a 347 or 363 to get the job done, but that will use more oil on street driving, blah blah or they just dont email me back. so i have began my research and started building a list, found a nice dart block, fully machined and choice of any crank, rods, and piston setup for a decent price. im just stuck on that, idk what heads to go with. the power adder will be a new procharger setup, if i can tune for 12-15 psi OR whatever psi needed to reach my goal. whether it be 9 psi from the procharger and some help from water/meth, i dont care. for the compression ratio, i do understand that i need to stay in the low 8's and maybe 9, but then again, heads can change that as well so thats where im confused. also, there is a long list of probably 1 million other parts i need so any help, or suggestions would be appreciated. sorry for the long post, but i just had to get this off my chest. thanks ahead of time
