My favorite quote: "347 is not an ideal street motor due to rapid wear on the rings (from the relatively low rod ratio) and increased oil burning"

Nothing could be further from the truth.

How far do you think I could stroke a 351 Cleveland?

could 289 heads on a stroked 347 work or would they just choke the engine down?

I saw how much the kits cost but how much is it to get it bored at a machine shop?

I am wondering if someone could tell me. How do you fix it when your banks are running lean? My 1st and 3rd banks are running lean. Is that as simple as changing the plugs? I may sound stupid but I don't know what "banks running lean" mean. Thanks for any help anyone can give!
