I am looking at a building my engine this winter and was wondering if all these parts will work together. (I am using the stock block)
-347 chp or dss stroker kit (low compression)
-afr 185 or 205 heads
-bbk or trick flow intake manifold
-procharger d-1 or vortech s-trim(14-15 psi)
-80mm mass air
-65mm tb
-42 lb injectors
-flowtech long tubes
Let me know
Thanks

Looks good, but you'll need to clearance the block for the stroker. 185s should be ok, unless you got a huge cam. But the only major problem I see is that stock block will last about 10 seconds under the HP you look like you want to product. Not even worth it if you're going to use a stock block. Get an R block or a Dart and be safe, and dont' waste all those new parts to an engine explosion.

I was just looking at the f-303 cam, possibly get a custom cam. I want something that lets plenty of people know I have a cam.
BTW, what kind of power do you think I would be looking at with that set up

F cam, Jesus Christ Ford Motorsport cams blow nuts. Don't put a Motorsport cam in, not with that set up. I know a lot of people on here use Motorsport cam, but anyone that knows cams know that there are a lot better choices out there, and they are very out dated. With that setup, to maximize the heads, I would go with something in the .550-.585 lift range and 260 duration. Heads don't show their true potential without a good supporting cam, and vise versa. I don't like the guestimating HP, I just know if you get your setup right, you'll make more then enough to break a stock block.

Yeah I was afraid of that, I was looking at a dss long block with the 185 afr's with the level 20 block. It will either be a 331 or 347. Looks like I should save a little more.
Thanks for the input
