Chris, You're not gonna sucker me into THAT BB vs SB argument
That subject is a constant giggle to me whenever I visit here.
Having said that, I want a well finished car that handles and stops well, and I'm willing to sacrifice some performance for that.
In some ways I still anguish about a 351 stroker but i've got a HD T5 and a heap of 302 engine stuff, including a fresh block, So common sense ( and an observant Minister for home affairs) keeps me on the 302 stroker path.
Maybe even a 331 cuz i'm a lil gun shy about the 347.
But I agree, the 347 should provide me all i want from a performance viewpoint
Pity I didnt contact you earlier because I'm writing this from a mates puter at coburg, could have visited if time allowed.
