Thanks Craig....exactly my thinking.

Remember originally I was going the 347 route....then I got to thinking why not use the 351 block...The 351 gotta do it heaps easier than a stressed 347...then..why not stroke the 351...sheezz, where does it stop?

I like long rods....or at least " nice" stroke rod ratios...I also have the thought that whatever torque the thing develops, it would be more than enough for a lightweight cobra.

That leaves the top end performance, so If done right....I should end up with a nice balance between a torque monstor and a nice revvy top end.

It's not like i'm gonna go lay black stripes down the middle of a mates road.......leave that to some-one else I know

Thanks heaps Craig
