    1 of the 2 shops ive talk to will start at the end of next week to build my 347 stroker ,probably the Canadian shop as they have seen what i have for parts and said they will get me 480 to 500 hp, i guess we will see if there all talk. There only 3 miles away from me and i can go see the dyno test without a 1 hr drive .

    Wow that's a bunch of $$ I hope to have as much in the whole new Mav build as what you'll have in your block and run 10's. I think I can do it......[​IMG]

    Why did you get away from the Mex block ?

    I have what i believe is a real friend on here who has given me real good advice and can back up his advice with a huge reserve of knowledge ,i think going with the boss 302 4 bolt main block is a graet starting point. Im going to get my 480 hp with a little help from my friend ,cheers all , I will keep you posted on my build.Im hoping for a 10:50 on pump gas and mid 9s with a 100 shot .Ill only get 1 pass with NOS and ill have to get licensed ,NOT ,LOL. Thanks for your Help cometGT1974

    Mr. Moore is definitely on my (short) list of people to pay-attention-to when it comes to SBF. :thumbs2:

    Im paying close attention to Stephan Moore,and Frank 71gold ,i think building your own engine better and faster hopefully than many crate engines is my idea of builing your own car. I guess i will see how well i listened and learned when the dyno comes in . Keep teaching Great Master Moore .WAX ON ,WAX OFF:Handshake
