i disagree, I did alot of research before deciding on what to do with my motor, and a 347 will make for a very poor daily driver. The rod/stroke ratio as well as thinner cylinder walls make for a less reliable engine for a daily driver. On the other hand, the 331 was has a superior rod/stroke ratio with regards to strength. Also, in 347 pistons, the oil ring intersects the wrist pin, which can cause compression problems as well as instabillity. Sacrifice the 16 cubes and go with the 331, it will last much longer.
