If you had $10,000 to spend on your 66 what would you do?

[strker347]

Buy a used/new R302 block 331/347 stroker turnkey engine that someone wants to sell for $8000 and a new Tremec 600 tranny and clutch setup for $3000.

I would probably just buy a Ford Racing Crate motor (power+ a warranty) for 4-5grand or so. You will hit that 350hp with the turn of a key.

 

[347Fastback]

What I did was go with a DSS Engine and G force tranny... Next for my fastback will be the new global west suspension. Here are links to the vendors I used:

you sure you dont want to spend the money on my 66? well what i would do is do all the neccessary internal work, slap a vortech on there, get a 5spd, do some driveline work, and call it a day.

why not go with a mildly modified 351 windsor? i am sure it would be cheaper than a stroked 302 and still have more cubes.

that would be fun but Ford Racing make a 380hp 347 for less money if I remember correctly.
