That 347 is retarded expensive for nothing other then a $700 347 kit and stockish parts. I have less then that into my 500hp(rear wheel, or at least it should be) 347. Here's what i've learned over the years. Spending money on someone elses research is stupid. There's a CHEAP forged 408 stroker kit on cafords for $700 if i wasnt broke i'd have bought it already. A used roller shortblock will run $250 from my builder. Trucks dont need to worry about having an expensive set of aluminum heads, aftermarket irons are cheap and give the same power. A custom grind cam will yield the most power for your application. Used efi intakes are cheap and will cut out dealing with a carb, unless you want to.
Even if you dont get a stroker kit for cheap, $250 for a block, $1500ish for a rotating assembly. $1000 for iron heads, about a $1000 in various shit to be safe and you'll have a MUCH better engine for the same money.
