    I plan to start working on a 68 Cyclone for my cousin. He would like to find a stout 351w to drop in it. He does'nt want a stroker. He just wants a 351 roller. I can't find any 351's that aren't stroked. I'm looking for about 400 horse. Anyone have any suggestions?

    The only thing I could find was a 7,700 racing mill. A little much. I was kinda hoping for 6000 and under price range.

    I am sure there are local builders in your area that will build what you want. A stroker will be about the same money and more power.

    I need a block also my time is limited so file cutting rings for a stroker plus machine work kinda limits me to a straight drop in hopefully done by spring.
