help me build my motor
ok guys...im gonna start with a 350 block...for the basics im going to bore it 30over and get a stroker kit.... i want around 10:5:1 compression...all forged internals...piston shape doesnt matter...i want internally balanced crank...i odnt know what size rods...5.7 or 6..i just want to clear my valves...and get the compression i want with all forged internals with no thick head gasket...
i want around 400 to the wheels...and mid to low 12s na... im looking to take a full super ram and port it...i want an extreme race cam but something still streetable...i already have the drivetrain and everything beefed up...as far as the heads go i dont know help me out on that one too... throttle body to take 52 or 58mm...i want 1000cfm flowing

You know,Those are pretty much my exact goals for my motor too.I coudn't decide between super or stealth ram.I figured I would just do super ram.

Why not start looking for stroker kits on ebay? Eagle has one that is pretty nice, as well as all sorts of others. If you want internal balancing then you have to go with a 6" rod. A nice bump stick is the ZZ-X cam and one that is a little more streetable is the ZZ-409, both from TPIS. A person on this site is running an Eagle all forged internals with Brodix heads and ZZ-X cam and is reving to 7K and pulling over 400rwhp.
