Stroked 351w in Fox

[Mustang_289]

I'm looking to pick up my play toy this spring summer, can't let my son have all the fun with our project 88GT, we've been building...

Couple of options:

First gen-stang, but I want to build some power, these cars are worth most if their returned to stock.

fox body stang, likely possibility as ample parts etc. I'm thinking about a stroked 351w (408). Is this something that can be street legal with cats and smog crap?

Sniffer legal yes. Inspection legal no.
As far as the sniffer goes, it's all how you build and tune it...

I plan on starting a 393 build up pretty soon.

I don't see why anyone would build a 351W from the ground up and not do a 393. It uses a 3.8" strok crank, stock 351W length rods, and a stock 289/302 piston.

Hell you can get a Scat 9000 series 393 crank for $350.
