i have ridden in a 347 87 gt and it was fricking awsome, i was just wondering what is the best route to go and it looks like a stroked 351 that would be a 408 is the best im just curiuos how much it woudl run after you got the engine built, installed, and what kinda suspension and tranny you would need to put in and how much that would be.

not at all. . . just make sure your car isnt rusted out or has a bent frame
