Daily Driver? - Get the 1.175" compression height piston, and the 5.315" rod. Keep the 347, and get a piston without a "4th ringland," aka, wrist pin does not protrude into the oil ring expander/scraper area.

After getting the 1.175"/5.315" 347 combination, the ONLY thing I worry about with the increased stroke is piston rock at bottom dead center. It can cause unneeded wear on the piston skirt, as it rocks, compared to something with less stroke. This has been documented.

Probe Industries carries them, and www.coasthigh.com does as well.

What is your budget? That will determine much of how much power you can get.

Manual will be quicker, if you can drive it.

High 11's is very possible, depending on budget, suspension, race weight, etc.

3.55's are okay, it just depends on the powerband you want to acheive.

If you would like to find out more about the differences and pros/cons of different combinations, you can click on the stroker information link in my signature.

High 11s is a very, very conservative goal. With EFI, pump gas and a full weight car, I'd expect mid-11s with street style suspension on radials.

You can get a 347 Scat kit for $750 at nitrousdealer.com. No, they aren't on his site. Yes, he does sell them. You'll have to send an email or call though.
