The way the car is now I'll never see the Horse Power goals Ive been reaching for w/ the current 9:0 compression. I could put in a stroker kit and bump the compression but that still leaves the current engine in the car and like I said I think Id rather have it back to stock and in storage for safe keeping as more of a collector item. I dont plan on having this new engine in the car and running until this time next year but for anyone looking for some parts I'll be posting things for sale once the car is up for the winter and I can get parts off it (late October) b/c I'll be selling off a lot of the current combo. As far as the engine this is what I have decided to go with.RNH Performance 408 Stroker with 10:5 compressionAFR 205 HeadsEdelbrock Victor 5.8 IntakeAccufab 75 MM TB (fox style set up)Not sure on the cam but probably an FTI CustomKooks Long Tube Headers.Corsa ExhaustI'll be aiming for 420+ at the rear wheels which should be easily attainable according to Rick at RNH Performance. Its going to be an expensive project but also many of the supporting mods or parts on the car are already for a 351W so I will save money there. The goal will be to have it running by June 1st next year. Will be quite awhile before anything happens w/ this project b/c much if it will involve saving up money for the short block, heads, intake and supporting parts over the summer and winter but when the time is right I'll be sure to give updates with pictures.</blockquote>
