Re: New Block Or Not?????
I'd keep the stock block and put a 331 stroker kit in it. If the engine has been maintained well, it should clean up at .030 over. Just boring it .030 over is not going to give you that shove you are asking for. But when you rebuild the engine and put a good top end on it, you will get that shove you are looking for.

Re: New Block Or Not?????
Yeppers, IEC nailed it again. Even if you have to go .040" over, still not a big deal. Throw in that stroker crank, and you'll have a 333. That's what we have in our 2nd car, and it RIPS! 11.50's all day long.......
