408 stroker 10_10.5 comp. NA should be around 500hp depending parts used. Will be doing 408w for my 70coupe with same hp goal.

H/C/I 351 with a 76mm will easily make 500rwhp.

stock 351 with 11;5 compression and good h/c/i should be over 500hp

All motor 351w! Otherwise I'd imagine the 393 would make a good track motor

Two lines of thinking. Either can make 500whp. I would do the all motor build just for simplicity, and clear engine bay. I have a 354ci now with 8.5:1 comp put down 430whp with shorty headers and 2 1/2 exhaust, threw a slipping converter. Not to mention a custom blower cam. I'd bet now that I got a new verter with long tubes, and 3" exhaust. It puts down about 50whp more. I also made 623hp on a motor dyno with a 10:1 401ci. both on 91 pump gas. What ever you do. Buy the best heads you can afford. That will go a long way in making power.

I'd vote for the all motor setup.

sorry to thread jack but what would a 351w 10.0:1 comp with tfs 170cc heads and shorty headers with custom cam put down to the ground

Unless that is the only head you have. I would pass. It's going to need a bigger head. At least a 185. imho It's still to small for a 10:1.
