340 or 408

Thank you for all the replies, lots of good info. I have been a Chevy guy for a lot of years, and the 350 is the basic work horse of the lineup. But once the 383 sbc hit the streets the war was on. I don't want to be the guy that gets grief for stroking an old 340 lol too many purists around here it seems. The 408 stroker makes the most sense for the gear and converter combo I am going with, as well I am only looking to run mid to low 12's with the car. I had a 9 sec street car, and have had enough of that crap. I want a cool old street car to have some fun with the way it used to be.
