I'm looking at building up a 343, is it better to stick the 343 crank in a 360 block since they have the bigger head bolts and the better flowing dogleg heads? Or is it better to keep the 343 block which supposedly have more "meat" for overbores, and possibly go with edelbrock aluminum heads?
I'd like to stay on the budget side if possible, but i know the pre-dogleg heads don't flow well. And to fit the later heads on the 343 required stepdowels, and later machining for intakes i think.
Also, i have no interest in stroking, i like and prefer the short stroke engines, the quick revs, and reduced wear they have.
