Well let me start by saying my 306 project has taken a turn for the best. I was going to build a h/c/i 306ci for the street and strip. Last night my friend called and has a 1994 351ci lightning block in perfect shape. I and going to punch it out .30 and install a Scat 408 stroker kit. I am buying the all forged flat top asy, that will push the compression up to 11.7/1. A large fuel pump, bump stick,injectors, mass air flow, and 351 lower intake is all I will need to build a bad azz toy. My dyno tuner said he has seen lots of these cars with that set up make over 450hp with a very mild tune. What do you guys think?

I think this is a talk thread.

Sounds like a fun project. A large cube, high compression 408 should really get ya moving!

sounds like a great plan... the only thing that i would change is to keep the compression lower just in case you ever decide to go forced induction...

I can drop the compression if I go with a larger cc head. I am stuck on what heads to run. I have no plan on running a turbo or super charger. I would spray the motor later once I finish the chassis build. I like the afr or the Aluminum GT-40 heads. I need a min of 64cc chamber. Any thoughts or opinions on head combo?
