347 with 2.2 kenne bell flowzilla?

I have heard the fuel rails are good for 500-600 hp...but that is just speculation. You would be in that area, maybe more...

Anyone know the inside diameter of the fuel rails?

I hope that isn't a stock block

If you are getting that whole package for that price, take it. I'm not a KB fan on a pushrod engine, but for that price i could be.
The shortblock alone was probably $4500
(this of course only if when you said "no R302", what you meant is it is an R302)

At that engines full potential, 42's are probably undersized, in a car setup for drag, i'd say 10's were a given.

ill just saying hes probably not selling it because it runs awesome obviously lol. Id think a 2.2 KB was a little small for a 347

Yes it will run.
Yes 42 should be plenty up to roughly 10 -12 psi from the 2.2L
No the 2.2L will not have any problems feeding a 347
Yes the blower and rotationg assembly are MORe than capable of splitting the block
Your time down the track will largely depend on your suspension and ability to drive
No, I cannot make a guess at HP or TQ numbers without having a lot more information:

Comp Ratio
Cam
Heads
Valves and springs
Blower Pulley size
Ignition
TB Size
Meter type and size
Porting and port matching
ETC.

Even WITH those things, the best anyone could do is a Wild Ass Guess with a ball-park figure.

One thing is for sure though... It's a hell of a lot of fun on the street and $4500 for the whole package (motor and blower) is a steal! I would seriously consider prepping a Dart block or equivalent for the internals if you looking to push up to 500-600 RW.

I thought the R302 block will not have a problem with that power

Don't forget though... the block killers are:

RPM largely due to crank walk) and Torque (the block "twister"). KB combos make a ton of the latter.

Generally the rule of thumb for stock 302s is 450RW when you hit dangerous territory. I'll give the R302 a little credit (not having run one) for being able to handle another 50 or 75 RW more (it's no miracle block by any means)? I pulled those number out of my rear end for the R302, if you're wondering. Just a WAG.

Personally, I don't trust the R302 block to handle any more power than a stocker.

The blower alone is worth the price you posted above.

I think you're confusing an R block with a sportsmen block, old man

Sir... you are correct! LOL

I READ R block several times and still THOUGHT Ford Sportsman the whole way.

Please disregard my above posts concerning the R block.


...and while I'm at it... I can't see any reasons why anyone would swap an R block for the Boss for this type of application.

All the more reason to jump on this deal. The machined block goes for what... $2K all by itself!

I was about to say the R302 and the B50 block are different...just a bit of confusion, it happens to us all.

The R302 block is near $1,800.

The B50 block doesn't have R in it's part number: M-6010-B50
