new to ford ?'s about my 377 stroker

[vector1]

no cam suggestions but it could be a make or break deal.

depending on your head cc's if you need some pistons that are flat top i have some std bore 4" with 1.5" compression height i could deal you that came out of a 383 with 6.125 rods.

Well I dropped off my engine at the machine shop. My machinist suggested I do a cam change similar to the specs blykins suggested he said it was a blower cam and then a bunch of mumbo jumbo I dont understand and to also keep everything as is and save up for a charger. Of course he will build anything I want but he said the charger would be the best bang for the $$. He also said with these heads and internals this engine will perform very well and could make in excess of 600 hp @around 12 psi (est). Sounds good to me so I think Im going to set it aside and save up some $$.

I will go ahead and install my 347 and tremec so I can get some seat time next season , worth the wait in my opinion.

If it is well prepped - get a blower!

He said it is prepped well and ready to rock. I am having him put new main bearings in just because its there. Also Im he is going to swap the cam (a little bigger). I will get the build done with the 347 , getsome seat time for a season and then next winter I will concentrate on the blower.
Thanks to all for the advice.

use the 3550 and sell or put the T-5 on the shelf .

We have a couple of 525 -620 hp motors with 3550 behind them. No problems!

For sure, I will use the 3550 no matter which way I end up going, Im going to sell all of the parts not used to recoupe some $$. This will be a street car only no track time Im sure, that would require free time away from.work.
