About a year ago I bought a 94 GT convertible that had been wrecked as a project car, i have been slowly collecting peices as I didn't have much money at the time. (still don't)

Here are most of the mods done to the car.
Stock Block, 347 Stroker
Becool aluminum Radiator
Moroso 10 quart oil pan
Comp Cams Hydraulic Cam.
Eagle Rotating assemlbly
Rousche 200 cylinder heads (64cc)
Comp Cams pro magnum rocker arms
push rods.
1" intake spacer ported intake
Cold Air kit (under fender)
Accel Coil
ADS Stage 2 Super Chip.
under drive pulleys
2.5" vortech Exaust
BBK chrome Headers,

TCI 3700 RPM torque converter,
B&M shift improver kit
3:73 gears

Sub frame connectors
Heavy Duty Sway bar,
Lowering kit
17x9 eagle alloy wheels
Pro top slotted disk brakes

Those are all i can get without digging deep in paper work.

So, what kind of HP do you guys think the car will make?
What would be the next most logical upgrades.

Thanks all and Great forum!!!

Vortech exhaust? Cam is pretty important at this point. So which one did you get?

0.555" Intake @ 0.05
0.565" Exhaust @ 0.05

Stock intake? I'm guessing stock TB, MAF and injectors too. Not a whole lot of power going on with this stuff and a 347.

Then your next step is to let that stroker breath ASAP. Change the stock intake out for something like the E-brock performer 2 maybe even the victor jr intake. Like Vib said you haven't listed injector/Mass air/TB so what do you have?

Your engine is starving of fuel and air. Stock MA is 70mm, stock TB is 60mm, stock injectors are 19lbs. I am 100% sure you are running very lean right now. Your stock injectors are passed maxed out right now. Also assuming you have the stock fuel pressure regulator and stock fuel pump you have quite a bit of up grading that HAS TO happen ASAP. Bigger mass air 80mm calibrated for at least 30lbs injetors or 36lbs, of course the 30lbs/36lbs injectors, 255lph fuel pump, adjutable fuel pressure regulator, E-brock performer RPM 2 intake, 75mm throttle body. I cannot stress how inportant it is to feed your engine the fuel and air it needs with the 347 you're running hell be glad you haven't killed the motor yet with the detonation that probably going on because the lack of fuel and air.

I did not set the car up, and have not ran the car, it has 500 miles on the motor after the work and the previous owner hit a tree leaving his drive way. he just washed/waxed it romped on it and it broke traction. then he decided he was affraid of it....go figure. (know the guy and he is being honest)

Your fuel and induction is eating so much power it's sick. If you want the most of that motor it's going to need a Edelbrock Intake, 70MM Throttle Body, 77or 80MM mass air flow, 255LPH fuel pump, 24 or 30 lb injectors and adjustable fuel pressure regulator. The stock stuff sux on a stock 302 motor. It really sux on a higher displacement motor like a 347. That motor will be lucky to make 250HP.

first of all, IMO you should get a holly systemax2 intake, which is great for a 347. Next get a custom cam ground. Also some larger injectors, min, 24lbs. and larger MAF and TB. IMO

I second the Holley intake...your 347 will love it. Not many other intakes out there can match it..if any at all.

Also get a 75mm TB and a 80mm MAF IMO. Also i think you would want ATLEAST 30lb injectors...maybe even 36lbs. Hopefully others will chime in....
