[QUOTE="WheresTheButta, post: 1007903, member: 559748"] Strangely enough I agree with marley. I eat/sleep/breathe ford, and getting 400+ rwhp out of a 347 stroker n/a is hard to accomplish on a streetable setup that uses the regular ol' 302 smallblock. The 347 you listed uses the newer sportsman block, supposedly more rugged than the older 302's that used to come stock in the mustang GT. Now, that's not to say 400 hp is hard to make on the 347........ it's just that it's hard to make that kind of power RELIABLY using no power adders. If he has alot of mods that he's not telling us about...... it's quite possible however. Side note: I've decided not to mod my car for performance anymore, I'm just going to wait and save some cash until I can afford an 04 cobra. Gonna be a while, but if I get this setup it will be well worth the wait. I have a build in mind...... swap a whipple on it and go all forged... crank, pistons, etc., a nice aeromotive fuel system with some msd digital... heh keep dreaming right? [/QUOTE]
