actually almost $3000 for dart blocks...i was just talking to my dad and he said he was already gunna turn it into a 331 and its already been bored .30over, so all i would need for that is rotating assembly to make it a 347? so that sound be around 800-1200?

well since your putting it in a dart block i would put in forged everything,where you can make some big power one day with a s/c {about a 9:0:1 compression }and you will need to get the cylinder skirts notched for a 3.4 inch crank to clear i
