i have a 302 block that is currently running in my 1988 mustang coupe
consistering going to a 347 stroker my friend will do all the work at his
machine shop so im not going to pay for that. so i wanted to get a really
good rotating set up

looking at Scat Ford Stroker kits
crank:3.400" 9000 Series cast
rods: I Beam 5.400'
piston type: forged dome

compression ratio
58cc 64cc 70cc
12.9 11.8 11.1

im going to get AFR heads but i wasnt sure what size combustion camber to
go with... also the cam im going to use is a f cam/ trickflow track heat intake
i have 24lbs injectors will i need 30s?

i'd go with the bigger injector. your tuner can tune them to work with less pulse width. he cannot make the smaller ones keep up if they are saturated.

i would develop a good relationship with a dyno shop once you get it together (actually before you start) and listen to what the tuner tells you.

good luck, rob
 
if you want it to run halfway decent and live you might want to consider changing:

the crank
the rods
the pistons
the heads
the cam
the intake

i would recommend the 4340 forged steel crank of your choice and a set of 4340 h beams. im not real fond of dome pistons because of the flame front. flattops work fine. for a hydraulic roller id call bullet racing cams or rick anderson. if have to run a windsor architecture inline valve head an RHS is a good choice. as far as a longrunner efi intake goes, a systemax is the ticket for what you are doing.

my buddy and i put one together last spring similar except it had a victor jr and a solid roller, it runs 10.60s@126 on the motor. traction limited 10 flats at 134 on a 100 shot.
