Im not to sure where to post this, hopefully thuis is the right spot. I got a 351 W block. I was wanting to get a 427 stroker kit for it, which i was pretty set on getting and all. I had a veteran mustang guy tell me that wasnt the best stroker kit to get, that he would go with a 408 or summin along those lines? Do any of yall have any suggestions of some nice stroker kits, im wanting to build it for a turbo or SC so i am gonna make it low compression. Around what compression ratio would i need to run for a turbo or supercharger???? Thanks for the helps guys!

I dont really know why or anything but most of the 351 guys run 408s, I dont know of anyone that runs a 427 ...I do know that sevral of the 408s are blown...another site to check out is www.turbomustangs.com they can help you alot with all of that turbo stuff. Good luck, hopefully that helped

Click to expand...

its because the stroke on the crank is larger than 4".Some people think this is a durability problom,but I really dont see anything wrong with it.Rod angles?Screw em'.Piston speed?Freak it.

It will make crap load of torque at such a low rpm,you wont need to turn it past 6000rpm.
