*ahem*junkyard 351W rebuilt (shortblock) w/1 yr 12,000 mile warranty 
$750 850 CFM double-pumper Holley (what gas mileage?) ported windsor SR. heads (you may want to ship these to a reputable shop) Victor style intake comp cam 282 solid roller to start I would expect 380-400 rwhp from this combo. [ February 12, 2002: Message edited by: shade-tree ]

same heads, I'd go for a Holley systemax II intake then, and expect to lose about 20 rwhp.

Oh, and I probably should say this, the heads and intake will get ported and polished at some point. nothing too extreme though..... aw fuck it, ported and polished to an unreasonable amount. how much does that give?

David,
when you figure out a combo that you think you're going to keep then come talk to me. I'm curious what these people are going to talk you into. Sound as if your ready to actually go through with this so if I can re-suggest buy a nicely pre-assembled short-block and go with a TrickFlow combo. The only other head I would buy is AFR.
Hey do you still want that Pro-M meter? Call me....

Trickflow heads (unported) are great on a 302. Not so great on a 351.

This is for everyone that is curious about why i am building a 351. I decided on the 351 because it is a very strong motor and when built correctly, is damn near indestructable. So I can sustain a decent amount of boost with out worring about anythig on the internals. Also, if I decide to get wild with this motor later down the road (396... ). I know i could spend the same on a 302 and make it wild. But, with a 351, the options for insane horsepower in the later future are damn near endless. Just thought i would clear things up for all that was confused.

now that sounds like a nasty combo for that maro, id love to hear how much you spent on that, im lookin at maybe gettin into a maro like that, who knows
Yeah it's a pretty nasty combo for a non stroker motor... It'll make damn near the torque and horsepower like a 383 without the extra $$$ of a stroker crank... Umm I can run down the costs of it a little bit to include machine shop work... It's looking like damn near 5K not including the exhaust and stuff..... Here's a rundown of the major stuff
SRP forged pistons and JE rings-$500
Eagle H-beam rods-$450
Top end package from IRS that included stage II heads/manifold, custom ground cam, ARP head bolts, top end gasket set $2900
Used LT1 block-$250
Machine work to block-Hot tanking, competition bore and hone with torque plates, squaring, decking block, new freeze plugs, cam bearings... $260
Balancing/blueprinting-$175
File fitting rings-$80
Complete assembly of long block to include degreeing cam, checking deck height, piston to valve clearance, pushrod length, etc... $640 Extra stuff I bought just because more power and RPM capability of the new motor warranted it:
Headers-360
4" Mufflex-525
Comp Cams R series lifters-200
There might be some odds and ends I forgot but this comes to a grand total of $5255 without the extras above.... After all is said and done I'm looking at close to 6500-7000 to include all the odds and ends I'll need....
