                    Some of those aftermarket 5.0 blocks are supposed to be able to be built quite large, like 360ci or maybe even more. Dennis Woody of Woody Automotive Machine in Indiana could tell you the specifics.

                        the world man o war 302 aluminum block maxes out at 376 ci with a 4.155 bore and 3.47 stroke, iron version maxes out at 387

                        their 351 aluminum block will go to 461ci with a 4.155 bore and a 4.25 stroke, the iron version will go 470

                            a 376 ci would be pretty bad ass tho , but a supercharged wagon i think would be cooler

                              Your going to need some good internals to use a blower with that kind of psi, so you might as well get the extra cubes if your buying new internals....and take advantage of that high dollar block you are using....What kind of procharger? F2? F1? p1sc? D1?

                              I'd do the 347 with a procharger...
