help me out with a build


Ok breaking down the 347 build….I’m putting on here some of the parts I’ve been looking at and what I’m going with so far….we will see how much money I can save up…somewhere around 1000 a month I hope. You guys help me out with this

If I was to use an after market block which I would really like to but I can spend that money in other places. Dart makes a really nice block. I also thought about going with a short block just to save money…I know I want to build a 347 so….CHP and DSS have nice Short block that could save me some time. I could also get a after market block with DSS along with of of there stroker kits…

Blocks: Dart Block a little over 2000 dollars and I could really get a nice short block for around the same price from CHP or even DSS. Im worried I am going to make to much hp and blow a hole in the stock block.

Stroker kits: Both DSS and CHP sell really good kits. I know I want all forged internals the would hold 500 hp no prob…The stockers can almost do that im just worried about the block.

Heads: im leaning toward getting the whole Trick flow top end kit but from what im seening you can do a “custom” top end your self and make more power…buying the kit would save some of the hassle and there made to perform with each other. I like the AFR’s 185 or even 215’s as long a you change out the springs. Might even go as far as dart but that’s going to hurt my money.

Intake Manifold: a lot of people say that the victor jr.s are too big but where does that really hurt you.

Exhaust is all about what you want….i know I want long tubes and something loud



CHP 347 Stroker kit but i don't know about these.......

Trick Flow top end kit

Or

AFR 185 heads
Victor jr upper and lowers
Some kind of kit to handle the rockers and push rods ect..


I’ll add more as I go but those are the things im really thinking about

I’ll add more as I go but those are the things im really thinking about
ok first thing, stay away from DSS blocks..CHP sells a dart shortblock 347 for like $2900..spend the money on aftermarket block to be able to shot it w/ some N20

heads: i'd say trick flows 2.02's are NBD w/ a dart block, at that point this is where RHS, canfield, edelbrock or like you said dart heads come into play.

intake manifold, i've heard the performer II is pretty nice, but i'd say go with the holley systemax intake for it..

then comes the cam, dont forget that, most important part..this is a for sure custom part, i would say comp normally, but go all the way and talk to ed curtis over at flowtech induction or jay allen over at camshaft innovations for you're best in custom grind cams, even a solid lifter would be a cool idea

for max HP through exhuast, either get 1 3/4 primarys LT's or a set of 2" custom kooks LT's...then an x-pipe and something not very restrictive like slp lm1, flowmaster outlaws or pro-dumps..

from what i've heard about CHP's 347's, is nothing but good stuff, heard to many bad things bout dss

dont forget about the supporting mods like TB, inj, AFPR, MAF, CAI and everything

also the new boss 302 block is another cool idea

if you want me to make a list of a good set-up N/A or not.let me know..

DSS blocks are not aftermarket block until you get the into the xr series and you can also get a dart sportsman or iron eagle block from coast high so dss is not your only choice,i say call coast high up when its time and talk to Galen.And dart pro 1's with the 195 runner are just about the same as afr heads but if you do go with afrs order them witht the spring upgrade.But if it was me i would do afr 185's,dart block coast high stroker kit,''''''called the dominator series short block''''',holley systemax intake,harland sharp 1.6 roller rockers,you need to measure for pushrods,42 lb injectors,vortech sq trim s/c or a 150-200 shot,but thats just me,AND ADO A CUSTOM GRIND CAM!!!

If I was to use an after market block which I would really like to but I can spend that money in other places. Dart makes a really nice block. I also thought about going with a short block just to save money…I know I want to build a 347 so….CHP and DSS have nice Short block that could save me some time. I could also get a after market block with DSS along with of of there stroker kits…

Blocks: Dart Block a little over 2000 dollars and I could really get a nice short block for around the same price from CHP or even DSS. Im worried I am going to make to much hp and blow a hole in the stock block.

Stroker kits: Both DSS and CHP sell really good kits. I know I want all forged internals the would hold 500 hp no prob…The stockers can almost do that im just worried about the block.

Heads: im leaning toward getting the whole Trick flow top end kit but from what im seening you can do a “custom” top end your self and make more power…buying the kit would save some of the hassle and there made to perform with each other. I like the AFR’s 185 or even 215’s as long a you change out the springs. Might even go as far as dart but that’s going to hurt my money.

Intake Manifold: a lot of people say that the victor jr.s are too big but where does that really hurt you.

Exhaust is all about what you want….i know I want long tubes and something loud



CHP 347 Stroker kit but i don't know about these.......

Trick Flow top end kit

Or

AFR 185 heads
Victor jr upper and lowers
Some kind of kit to handle the rockers and push rods ect..


I’ll add more as I go but those are the things im really thinking about
DSS blocks are not aftermarket block until you get the into the xr series and you can also get a dart sportsman or iron eagle block from coast high so dss is not your only choice,i say call coast high up when its time and talk to Galen.And dart pro 1's with the 195 runner are just about the same as afr heads but if you do go with afrs order them witht the spring upgrade.But if it was me i would do afr 185's,dart block coast high stroker kit,''''''called the dominator series short block''''',holley systemax intake,harland sharp 1.6 roller rockers,you need to measure for pushrods,42 lb injectors,vortech sq trim s/c or a 150-200 shot,but thats just me,AND ADO A CUSTOM GRIND CAM!!!
basically what i said, but at that point i say 1.7 roller rockers..and i never said dss blocks ARE aftermarket. i wouldnt go as far as s/c, but 500-600 all motor and another 200 shot..yay
I was not referring to anything in your previoud post with this one,we were typing at the same time.but hes not gonna make 500-600 hp w/o a poweradder.
why not...heavily port a rlly nice set of say 195cc canfield heads, 1.7's, custom cam, holley systemax and i think it could be done..
