![]() let's look at all the options here, okay let's get this out the way first, "there is no replacement for displacement" sometimes. LOL
Me personally I like the stroked 351 route, you have plenty of cylinder heads to choose from, headers,oil pans, so on so forth that you can pretty much walk into any of your local speed shops and buy, heck even some Kragen's you might get lucky. A 351 can easily be mistaken for a 302 by a lot of hammerheads out there who drive Camaros Firebird and rice rockets. Advantage of the 429/460 unbelieveable torque that will always be there, the first time I ever drove a small block with a stroker kit, I could not get over the torque it had, so if this 8.2 deck had crazy torque, then i am sure a 429/460 has mad torque. You are going to need a lot of custom parts to put that 429/460 in a Fox Body, it can be done they sell kits now a day's for that swap but you better upgrade the front suspension so it does not bottom out, food for thought. Me personally I like the stroked 351 route,there are so many options for running a stroked Windsor especially if you get a FRPP W block or a Dart block. |
