Why do I keep reading street car like it's un-attainable with a stroker? Stop acting like you can't dd a stroker. When you do it will go fast and will drive just fine. When you don't you will have a 347 that traps 110 and e.t.s 12.60s... and gets horrid gas mileage all the same. Choose wisely. Listen to those in here that have ran their set ups and know what they are talking about.

88saleen... idk what the hell you are talking about. You will be extremely happy when you see how your "205" mistake pulls on the street. If you want to shift at 5000 rpms leave the e7's on there save your grand and buy a shitty as v1 or something.

Your right I daily drive my 331 vortech car with 205 afr heads. Its odd that all the western guys like the Trick flows and seems like the eastern guys favor the afr's.

you cant dd your car like that it would be impossible due to low end torque and would stall at lights
