YEP! What he said. Nothing personal, but a kit is the way to go for a beginner. It's like money in the bank (well, OUT of the bank! LOL) All parts come as a matched set, provided it's a reliable company. Although, we're currently working on a "junkyard" 393, just to see if it can be done. And so far, it's going really well!!! Looking to drop it into a 4th Gen GM F BODY!!! Just to piss people off. hehehehehe Big thing here is balance, and Ford is quite quirky with the 28.8 and 50 oz. imbalance. MOST of the strokers are the 28.8 oz variety, but you DO have to pay attention AT ALL TIMES.

Like Ryan said, let us know, we'll steer ya in the right direction.
