4.125 bore Dart block, 3.4" crank, 5.4" rods, dished pistons, everything forged, AFR 205 heads, custom cam, and a paxton novi 2000 supercharger?

363CI

any suggestions/revisions?

should i go with a 4.000 bore block and just go with a 347 stroker?

personally i would go with cubes, those blocks are plenty strong enough even with the big bore.

oh, and theoretically, with the larger slugs, the motor would be more over-square. This would help it be able to spin faster, no?

I am looking into a dart 331 as well. Where is a good place to get one? I also was wondering if I will need to get better heads. I have Edelbrock aluminum performer rpms. Also, what would be a good intake? I currently have the crappy cobra intake. The goal is to slap a ysi or novi 2000 on it.
