t or a YSI is just gonna granade your stock block ( I know) and your gonna go out and have to buy everything, so i suggest starting with the 408, but keep it fuel injected dont listen to these rednecks

I would say those 215cc heads would work alot better on a stroker of some sort than on a 5.0. I would do the 408 with a carb if the car was a 4cyl conversion or already converted to carb but If the car is EFI, I dont think I would convert it. I would probably do a 347 so you could resue any boltons you already have, the big heads would work better, and you can save all the $ you would otherwise spend on accessories and bolt ons for the 408 and put it towards a blower. Now if $ wasn't a consideration, definately EFI 408.....and a blower
