I would go with a Scat Forged rotating assembly, AFR or TFS T/W Heads, performer intake, Comp cams XE series cam, 70MM TB/egr, 255LPH in tank fuel pump. However you are missing one key component if you want to have "the baddest 347 possible"...and that is the block. As far as clutch i'd go with a Spec Stage 3.

I too have been looking down the road at the 347 but right now I only have just under 64K and hopefully won't need it for awhile but I have been told that my Track heat set up may not be the best and will prob. have to change it all.......I'll keep an eye on your responses...

I was going to go the 347 route, but ended up going with the 408W.

After talking to several different companies, here's what I would have done
-CHP 347 Street fighter kit, forged crank/pistons.
-AFR-205's
-Edelbrock Vic Jr EFI intake, lower ported
-Custom cam

This would also be a nice combo to base off of, 10 second quarter, NA:

This is exactly why I dumped my 1996 4.6L and bought a 1995 5.0L ... there are so many more possibilities!



if you want the baddest 347 possible with every day drivability, i say go turbo with a streetable cam. then you can control the manners with your right foot.

Don't forget an aluminum Dart block and BILLET steel crank if you are building the baddest possible. . .
