[QUOTE="TORQUERULES, post: 16682565, member: 29411"] If you want to enjoy your car, have it reliable and not snort and buck like crazy, plus tons of torque for cruising, etc. then you cannot beat a dead simple 408 stroker windsor. Plenty strong with a stock block/girdle and you can get decent compression to run pump gas with about any simple kit. Use good heads, do not run into the "they are too big" trap (look at LS3 engines as an example here), run a nice hyd-roller camshaft, not too small, but with a lobe separation angle that allows good vacuum and a decent idle. and you will be surprised at the results. Carb or efi. No need to build a race engine for a street car if that is you intention. Remember that a notch body Fox is light. 450-500whp would be plenty to get you into all kinds of trouble.
