hi, i decide to build a pretty fast and streetable 347 for my 88' LX, almost daily driver, this is what i thought, forged kit flat top, 185's, XE274HR cam, 30 Pounds injectors,75mm maff, stage 2 ported typhoon intake, 70mm TB, 1 3/4 long tube headers, 2.5 Xpipe etc...
the thing is that the kit sais that with 58cc heads is going to have 10.5 CR is that ok or is too much? and depends how the engine runs i problaly put 200HP shot but i what it the fastest i can N/A and what should make on 1/4mile N/A with stock T5, 3.73 gears, 26X10 sliks
any tips sugestions or any mistake i'm making? whant lots of opinions...

well as for compression, you can run 10-11:1 on pump gas easily. Also find out if they are computing that compression at 0 deck? Secondly a 200 shot on top of the 350 it should make easily on motor is gonna tax the block in its weakest area, the mains. Some things to consider but easily doable. What 347 kits ya lookin at?

blocks still crack the same with girdles, as for hp and et, no clue 200-600 and 13.0's to 9.0's thats all up to you.

girdle isn't going to keep you from cracking the block, but it will TRY and keep it semi-together in case you do. If you've ever seen an overworked 5.0 thats literally split in half (which is usually what happens) you'll know what the girdles for.
