I had the same thing happen to me. I chose to stroke it. Definatly look at the budget you're willing to spent and go from there. I pieced mine together for about 1700 bucks for the rotating assembly/balanced and another 900 bucks in headwork and other parts. Now if I had 6 grand laying around, it would be a procharged 340 instead of stroked. I'm chose to run the comp XE 275 HL cam with mine. Cam specs out to .525 lift, 231 int. 237 ext. duration @ .050 on a 110 lsa. This line of comp cams (extreme energy hi-lift) was designed for the new small block strokers. Good luck with the build :thumbup:
That's funny, I've got 69 posts.:lol:
