347 stroker

usmc95gt · February 4th, 2009, 01:56 PM

hey guys, i have a 95 gt that im currently in the process of modding. i was just going to leavee it at h/c/i but im far enough into it now i decided why not spend about 3k more and go with a 347 stroker from d.s.s racing. before i do it though i wanted to get some input. how do you think the trickflow twisted wedge heads will work on it and what kind of cam should i go with. also how big should i go with the injectors 30lbs? any info you can give me will help thanks guys.

I am running the trick flow twisted wedge CO1 heads on mine they are 205 cnc ported version with my 347 i have not got it in the car yet cause I am waiting on a few more parts but I talked to some very experienced people and thats what they told me to go with and i had jay allen grind me a cam. I would definately go custom grind. I am using 30 lb injectors and my maf is calibrated for them due to their recommendations. you should contact jim @ FordStrokers.com 331-347-393-408-418-427 stroker kits and ford parts. he is a genius and can help you a lot

definitely go with twisted wedge heads and custom cam...and ur right on with the 30's..only if ur gonna keep it N/A tho

You can't go wrong with those heads, have you priced headers yet?

WildWill · February 4th, 2009, 09:40 PM

+2 on what's been said. TW heads, custom grind cam, and I would do 42# injectors.

usmc95gt · February 5th, 2009, 02:28 AM

i already have headers they are part of what i bought before i decided to go 347, and wild will you think i need to go all the way to 42#. also in your opinion who is the best to go to for a custom cam?

95StangMX · February 5th, 2009, 01:13 PM

Jay Allen hands down IMO.....42 is too much for your combo if you are NA

42's ARE way to much for naturally aspirated, no questions asked..sorry will..but +1 for jay allen...im sure everyones gonna agree, if not, they should

Have you thought about doing a 351 based build? For relatively the same amount of money, you could have A LOT more displacement.

i have thought about going the 351 setup but most of the things i have now will work on a 347 but im not sure about a 351 based block. but now you got me thinking about it what would i have to change if i went 351 instead of 302?

TKOTLARZ · February 5th, 2009, 03:41 PM

pretty much jus the bottom end,most the things u have now will most likely work on a 351..its a very good idea, somthing i wanna do for sure cause my heads and manifold will fit on the 351 bottom end..u jus gotta have the heads drilled for different size studs i think it is..somthing simple like that and thats all..and it has more potential than a 347

usmc95gt · February 5th, 2009, 03:48 PM

so the heads and intake will work? i was told that the heads would but the intake wont because that block has a different deck height or something like that. also will it bolt up to the tranny or do you have to change bell housings.

TKOTLARZ · February 5th, 2009, 03:53 PM

o u kno u might be right..i think u might need a diff. lower manifold..forgot about that..and im not sure about the bellhousing..im sure somone knows here

94' Cobra 351 · February 5th, 2009, 03:56 PM

A 302 lower intake will not fit a 351 because of the different deck heights.

As far as I know, the bell housing fits both.

I thought I saw somewhere that the 302's had 7/16" head bolts where the 351's have 1/2" head bolts. I might have mistaken this with the main cap bolts...I'm trying to find the info...

Yes as the others said... 42's are overkill for an N/A application. But since you are stroked and with the H/C/I you are planning on, I suggested the 42's to give you room to grow. Do you have plans for a power adder of any kind? If so, then I would only buy injectors once and get the 42's. If not, then 30#'s will do you fine.

And I also recommend Jay Allen for a custom grind cam. He's the best in the business.

347 here built by Woody from Ford Strokers. I'm running AFR 185 heads, and a Jay Allen cam. My mods are in the garage. If you're looking for a MAF for 30lbs injectors let me know. I have a Pro-M with only 3500 miles on it that I'd sell you. I'm switching to a different set-up.

I reccomend he at LEAST gets 36# injectors... my MILD 331 has a 98% work load with 30# injectors... definately look at some bigger injectors... ohh and +1 to going with Jay!

98% work load with 30# injectors????!!! Man, my 24#'s must be maxed then...

How much power are you making with your 331?
