Default 351 build up questions

originally was building a 331 strocker, but got addicted to cubic inches...

first off, is this a good deal? http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...1&comp=LRS

i called and asked, and it is a F4TE (? i think thats the letter combo) factory hydraulic roller block.

if that will work, planning on installing a set of Trick Flow Track Heats (non O-ringed with the upgrade springs and 10*locks), mild Lunati cam (226/210 @ .050", .525 .525, 114* LSA), TFS 1.6RR, Comp Cams timing chain, Lunati lifters, Pro. Products RPM intake manifold (351 lower obviously), 30# injectors, 75mm MAF, BBK 255lph fuel pump, Bassani 351 SN95 headers (long tubes, ceramic coated for $385!!!!!!! i just got these, they look AWESOME!!! http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/...1&comp=LRS), and a bunch of other stuff. redline will be 6200rpm. tuning will be handles by SCT Pro Racers package and dyno testing.

any ideas on what size TB i should be using? and estimates on HP? i know it wont be a monster or anything, but i need more than the 230rwhp i have now from my bolt on 302. can it handle a bolt on LT-1 auto and 3.73's with a possible 150 shot? we used to be kinda close before when i had 205rwhp and before his 3.73's.

oh yeah, my car also has a T56, SPEC aluminum flywheel, SPEC 2+ clutch, and the Ford Racing 31 spline 3.73 8.8 alxe kit. not that it adds hp, but the driveline is willing to play.

thanks a lot guys!!!

I would say thats not a good deal, go to the junk yard and find yourself a good core.

Junk, junk, junk, junk, junk, junk.

Go to www.fordstrokers.com for a good reasonably priced short block.
