Ok i got a friend that has a mid 70's 351 that he said he would give me in return for all the help i've given him on his house. I been thinking that with the free factor on the motor to have it stroked out to a 408 with all the goodies to go along with it. Just curious though what kind of numbers would i see and would it be really worth it.

I would try and find out what year block it is exactly. 69-74 blocks are the blocks to have. If it's a 70's block it's going to say D then either 1-9. That number after D is the year it was made.

That would be pretty sweet............ but you've got a nice motor already just supercharge the thing and be done with it.........

Don't supercharge it. Use a turbo.
