alright well later down the road, after i get my new intake mani, TB, and MAF im looking at going with a 347 stroker kit. i want to stay away from forced induction, just coming out of a turbo car and all. I saw this on ebay, it looks good, but I'm weary of the price. Let me know what you guys think.

Here is what you get

HAWKS RACING 347 3.40"" STROKE NODULAR IRON CRANKSHAFT WITH STD/STD SB FORD JOURNAL SIZES
347 5.315" CNC PROFILED LIGHTWEIGHT FORGED I-BEAM RODS
KEITH BLACK .030 DISHED (10CC), PIN FIT PISTONS PISTON PINS AND RETAINERS (9.5CR/62cc)
NEW PREMIUM ROD AND MAIN BEARING SET STD
+.030 PREMIUM RING SET
ADD 39.99 FOR PREMIUM "Z" (ZERO) GAP MOLY RING SET +.030


Personally I wouldn't put a Hawks crank in my lawnmower, and it is nodualr iron. The rods are not named so you really do not know what you are getting, KB makes some OK pistons but there are much better kits out.

by the time you balance the assembly you could have purchased a decent Eagle crank/rod combo with some keith black or Probe forged pistons...

hawk has a tendency to be very pricey when balancing the crank, as the person above me stated you dont know what rods are in the kit either....

look at summit they have started putting out some forged 347 cranks as they have cast cranks also if you are going to stay N/A you could use a cast crank...
