    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    I understand what is going on.. I know the deep end goes in the rear, I meant something similar to that.

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    Right, well I mean something like that you know, with room in the back. I'm going to hammer my stock pan for now and see how that works.

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    Alright I'll double check with them. Well is it a true double sump?.. it has a small sump in the back. Looks like this: Why not?

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    You guys will be happy to know, (at least I am) one of the 4th/8th connecting rod bolts (ARP WaveLoc) was rubbing on the pan and making a nice little divet and scratch. I'm just going to get a double sump style oil pan, sounds good?

    Mount Pertronix igntion coil vertically or horizontall?

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    Well I have to take another look at it tomorrow, but everything was balanced so i don't know. It has a 3.4 stroke so I honestly think it is just really close to the pan. I looked at the stock pan on summit and it said it wasn't clear for a stroker, but I looked at another pan and it said that...

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    Okay, that's really odd. I primed it as much as possible, what could have happened? I'll pull it tomorrow and take a look.

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    Thing is, I got it built by a reputable shop, and I checked up on everything along the way and it looked great, So I don't know... I hope to god that it isn't anything bigger than the pan, I've spent too much money and time with no car for this to **** up. :notnice:

    Oil Pan Clearance :(

    So I finally got my 352 stroker running, fired up first time, but I got it outside and was listening and there is a tapping noise from the engine, not the lifters but lower. I was listening near the pan, then felt it, it is vibrating like crazy. I think the crank/rods is barely hitting the pan...

    Looks good. Get on it! How much did the turbo cost, intercooler?, and is that the stock block.

    Welding the stock rear end

    You live in San Jose? Check out Mustang Ranch, great store, they will help you find what is best for you, then go buy it on summit. I'd go with 3.73 so you don't lose all your top end.

    To tint or not to tint

    If you go dark you have to watch out for the 5-0 though. I'm getting my 5% removed and either getting 20% and the front windshield done 30% or just keeping the 5%

    Cool. I was talking to a local shop and they said that some 347s that they've seen have been around 4xx at the wheels. But any advice on what to do?

    347 Help

    I plan on boost for over the summer, and I already have a Dart 302 bolt, 4 bolt mains,etc. I'm saving it for the summer, I just want the 347 because I spun a rod bearing and would rather get the stuff now instead of later. How much power are you making coolblue?

    347 Help

    331 Supercharged...?

    Anyone have a suggestion on what transmission I should use? I was thinking world class but will it be strong enough?

    331 Supercharged...?

    I feel you on that one. I would do that, but I have ALWAYS wanted to do something that requires custom fabricating, and forced induction. Maybe I will just rebuild it with the new 302 block and stroker kit and call it a day. Simple enough and should be 450hp or so?

    331 Supercharged...?

    You all have very valid points, I agree. I need to step back and really decide on what I want. I would rather spend the money on a car, to make it fast, than on a bike, and die quicker. Anyone disagree? I would love a bike, just to death trap ish for me. Realisticaly- Fast, Fast Street Car...
