don't waste your time and money; build it right

I get it, bought a 91lx motors pretty tired just want to use what i already had, I am building another 347 for my 87gt its done right just want somethin to cruise in until its done.

They flow just under 200cfm, so Id say if you allready have them and cant get better heads, use them, but you will not be impressed.

Why do you have an extra stroker kit laying around?

stangage · July 24th, 2009, 03:32 AM

I ordered it for my 87 but they sent me the wrong kit it didnt come with the twisted wedge pistons so instead of piecing the new kit together i just bought a better one from DSS.

Better one form dss lolz

The right cam will make it work OK - you might get a little over 300 RWHP and some good torque - the cam will be key. You'll need more duration due to the restricted inlet. I've seen em make 325 to wheels with ~360 lb-ft. Nice street engine for a DD since you've got the parts.

Like any mass engine builder - it's hit or miss depending on who works on your engine

Any ideas on a good cam spec or off the shelf cam for his setup?

Waste of time and money. 302s will be running circles around it. You would be better off selling the stroker kit to buy a better set of heads for your 302. Why would you want to add 45 cubic inches and not do anything to increase airflow into the engine? P heads are barely adequate for a 302 and don't ever belong on a 347.

I'm not sure Jay would even grind a cam for a set up like this because its not going to make any power either way.

baine21225 · July 25th, 2009, 10:54 AM
