Planning on running pump gas? What kinda power levels are you looking for? Is the 347 forged? Or hyperu-crack-nic? The heads are milled to what?

6-8lbs on pump gas with a decent tune, you can pretty much do that with any motor, higher you CR, harder it is to keep the det. away. throw a meth/alky kit at it, and that would help too.. but its all about your goals.
