I'm not sure how much power I plan on making. I plan on using AFR 185 heads and an Eagle stroker kit, but thats about all I know right now.

A decent 347 setup is capable of 400 HP, then toss even 6 psi at it and your well over 450, so I guess the beefier block is a must!

I've seen B50 blocks for around $1,000. How much do the R302 and Dart blocks cost? Cost will be a factor in building this combo, but I don't want to get stuck having to rebuild it because I skimped on parts. Do it once the first time and make sure it't right!
