On what?
What about a stroker - what would you do between a 331 a
For a size... to me... a 347 is better than any 331 engine. Even bigger would be great... Depends on the block and what it can take for a bore size.
What about stroke vs rod length?
what are you meaning exactly when you say inline?
my TWs valve are not all lined up like most heads, you look down the head and the valves are not straight, they zig zag...
i dont know if you are meaning something else when you say inline?
I think there is a huge disconnect in what people consider inline. Some people say it is the valves all in a nice line when you are looking at the tips above the springs. You could run a straight edge along the sides of the valves and they would all touch the straight edge. TW heads don't do that.
Other says that it is the valve angle in the head. Which supposedly the TW has the same valve angle intake and exhaust, it's just that the intake valve is rotated up. I happen to disagree with this since my TW have different valve angles, but they are an older set, I don't know if that makes a difference.
So what is it? Can we define inline?

If you do not get the new version Canfield 195s, IMO you'll be wasting your money. I also know a custom camshaft will give you considerable power gains across the band N/A or on boost.
my TW head valves are not lined up and the valve angles are differenet from the intake to exhaust.. so to me they are not inline.
