Frpp 347 450hp crate engine

Anyone purchased and installed this engine?
I am curious about opinions on performance,streetibility and any other comments.
Looking to install into a 65 fb with a 5 or 6 speed with a 3.73 rear end.
Dyno #'s would be nice as well..
Thanks,
Scott

it is a decent motor, built with average forged internals(probe or eagle). you won't mess it up N/A.

Could build one with more power, but for simplicity you can't go wrong with the Ford Motorsports Z347. IMO

Ford dosnt make stroker cranks,pistons or rods and the ford crate motors are not built by ford, theyre built by a job shop and marketed as a ford engine. You could build your own for less money and have better heads too. As far as crate engines go there are alot worse deals out there. I cant think of anyone I know who has had any issues with a frpp motor.
