I plan on geting a dart 351 and strokeing it to a 408
im pretty much looking for guidance on what parts are the best (heads,turbos,cams,stroker kits)
im kinda looking for a list of parts and componys on everything i need to make this thing an absolute beast.

thanks, Ant

408 - 9 - 1 comression.
225cc heads ( AFR, TEA, whatever )
custom cam ( Jay Allen, Ed Curtis, LSM ...... all good )
Edlbrock Super Vic EFI intake
AEM computer
Sumped gas tank with twin Aeromotive A1000 fuel pumps
96lbs injectors
twin 76mm turbos
1 3/4 primaries on your turbo headers
twin 3" downpipes
12 X 24 X 3.5" intercooler

Easily make 1000+rwhp
No budget is good, cause you're going to spend a LOT of money to safely make 1000+rwhp

Dont forget the trans, 9" rear end, chasis, suspension, k-member, tuning, ect. ect.

This guys TT 427 is just insane. I think he's making 1200+rwhp at 17psi

If you're really serious about this and want it done right
I would plan on spending close $30k after it's all said and done.
You're going to have to throw a lot of parts at this car for it to
all stay together at 1000+rwhp

Engine:
You need to get with a serious engine builder and custom cam/head guy.
I would call www.fordstrokers.com for the engine and www.camshaftinnovations.com for the heads and cam.
Tell both of them what you want to do and they will build you the correct engine for it.
No guessing on parts.

Run the Edlebrock Super Vic EFI intake with 90mm TB and elbow.

Trans:
I would run a built C6 or Powerglide with that kind of power
with Ford 9" axle and 3.27 to 3.08 gears

EFI system:
AEM plug-n-play computer

Turbos:
Do you plan to make the turbo install yourself ???
can you weld and fab .... good ?
There is a lot to picking out which turbos you want to use.

good turbo parts supply houses
www.racepartssolutions.com
www.treadstoneperformance.com
www.extremepsi.com
www.summitracing.com

I would start by getting this book.
http://www.amazon.com/Maximum-Boost-.../dp/0837601606
Techincal book on how to design and fab a turbo kit for any set-up.

check out and PM that guy that has just done what you are wanting to do.
I've talked to him couple of times and he seems very nice and helpful.
