Bernie... I have heard that the 377 ci stroker is the preferred size for production 351 ( late series ) windsor blocks. Also makes for some very nice bottom end geometry.

The later blocks are a little lighter (hense not as strong) in the webbing as the earlier blocks and there is some thought maybe too light for the popular 393 stroker route.

I have a 1989 windsor 351 block ( late series ) and have been trying to ascertain if this block will be reliable when stroked to 392 for street work. Seems in the US that they all use the earlier blocks stroked to 393.

If 392 is too much then I also will stroke to 377ci. I also have a pair of heads same as what you have so I'll be very interested to see what your motor dynos at.
