    Sorry, I seem to have been experiencing technical difficulties in posting a reply. Tried last night, and earlier today and it didnt seem to work.

    Again, tahnk you kindly for the response tech.

    Well, yes and no. While i do agree, I should probably explain their side. They are going to junkyards, getting detuned junker 350's for dirt cheap. Im talking 275hp junkers. All they are doing, is bolting on a charger till it blows, and moving on to the next junker block. When i say that, i mean NOTHING else is beefed up to handle it. While i already have the c-6, np205, np208 doubler, d-60 rear, and d44 front built to handle up to 700hp/650tq (original owner's son was going to build a 545 stroker, took the motor).

    So, when i say i would like an engine that could keep up with their bolt ons, My target being 400+, i won't be too terribly off from their power output. Being as they wont/cant run even double power, MAYBE 10psi bringing them to about 470? at BEST?

    From my perspective, if i build it right, it would come down to driver skills, and frankly they have none :P Great friends, but not great drivers.


    Then again, i came asking for advice, i should take it.

    What would you say for my build in a non-stroker fashion then Tech?

    Though, if you would indulge me, what would you do for the 445 stroker? i have a second motor i would love to build as well
