All right guys (and gals), I am looking into what I need to do to make the successful switch from a 302 to a 351w (I have a 69 351W ready for rebuild). I have a 69 with a 3 spd. I have a lot of questions and want to know the can of worms I could be getting myself into:
1.) should I go carb or efi?
2.) to stroke or not to stroke (and who makes a good stroker kit)?
3.) what do I need to beef up if I go to stroker... auto trans or 4 speed (nv3550?).. need new driveshafts, rear gears and axles?
4.) has anyone made the switch and recall the total cost to do it?
5.) How much of a pain is it to do? (I've read a couple of posts from bax and others about shoehorning it in)
Thanks for all the help in advance.
