Re: GTRA 347 Conversion Sump Questions?

I am no expert but my next motor will probably be a 331 cu versus a 347 cu. Regardless I am also going to go with a Boss Block from FORD. I just want the extra comfort that if I miss a shift or something like that it will hold together. Especially given the conditions we run our motors in, it just seems smarter even though there is a price difference.

I think the standard block is good for 400 hp and 6k. My dad knows more than me on this. I am sure he will chime in. He has all the internals waiting to build a really nice 347 motor.

Anyways my thoughts.

OBTW what do people think about the 331 cu FRPP crate motor that is said to make 500hp?

Thanks.
