355 Stroker - Aussie V8 | Holden - Ford

CNCDAVO · 23-05-2008, 12:03 PM

Hi all great wed site this is my first post.
I am doing a ground up rebuild of a 1978 HZ Prem Wagon.

Some of my question might seem silly to you guys but here goes.
I want to stroke the Red 308 engine. 355 or for a little bit more $ a 383?

This is what I'm thinking COME stroker kit. With some VN heads.
Should I buy some used VN heads or some Alloy heads?
What would it cost to reco some used VN heads, and any recomendations who I should use?
Any recomendations of combos, ect appreciated.
Will I have to update the Carby?

I have so many questions

This is my first go at doing up a car,I'm loving it.

My aim is do as much as I can myself I have been doing the body work for 13 months now.
