Some of you have probably read post and threads I have made in the past, but im stiff kicking around ideas for a powertrain for my 68, hope to get things kicked off next year and get the body work done and start on the rear end and suspension. SO here is what I have been thining about:
I was very impressed with the BOSS 302 build in the last issue of Modified Mustangs and Fords. That got the little wheels in my head started creaking, What about a BOSS 347? Using a $695 block from Summit, SCAT 347 rotating assembly, aftermarket 351C heads, and a nice cam. From a stock spec BOSS 302 the dyno figures read 340+ HP, hotter cam and other tweeks boosted it up to about 525hp, thats where I would like to be (thats where my other options were in terms of HP) I would think that by upgrading to a 347 rotating assemble I could produce more torque, and have a BOSS 347.
Thoughts, opinions?
THANKS
