Default Re: Newbie from London, need help!

I have not seen any decent rebuild write-ups with detailed pics on any of the forums that I visit. But I haven't been looking either. There are enough intelligent people on this board who can answer any of your questions you may have along the way though. Will you be keeping this car fuel injected or will you be using a carburetor? If it were me and I had $2700 (US) to spend, I would build the 351 with 10.5-11.5:1 compression, top it off with AFR 185cc heads, get a custom ground cam, use edelbrock's victor jr intake, and a 750 Holley carburetor. Or you could opt to build a stroker out of it and put some even bigger heads on it. A 393 or a 408 are among the most common 351 based strokers. Is it a 351 Windsor you are using? If you're not sure, count the valve cover bolts and post the number.
