Hello,

I am excited to build out the 347 stroker kit from your video series for my Bronco.

As I am still using the vehicle through the fall and winter sports season, I am going to build a new engine then install.

I have a line a nice 302 HO from a 92 mustang. Everything I see dictates this will work for this build as I'm going down to the block and junking the top end. Am I thinking right here?

Thank you,
Joe

Hey Joe!

Thank you so much for watching the series! You are spot on! That series will totally work for you. I believe there were no block changes from 81 to 92.

Now if you do plan on putting in a stroker kit like I did make sure you tell your machine shop because they will need to cut reliefs inside the block to allow the crank to spin.

Best,
Ryan
