my firebird has a 350 highoutput, 4 barrel. thinking of making it standard but im not sure. cant decide if forged is better than turbo or supercharge. i want the most powerful engine i can put out in my bird.

Ugh! Lose the 350. Buy yourself a 383 sbc crate motor for about $ 10,000, bolt it in and enjoy the ride. You'll find it'll cost you less in the long run, plus you'll have the warranty that comes with a Bill Mitchell or Edelbrock crate motor.

Back it up with a 2000 stall speed Turbo 400 or 700R4, bolt in a 9" Ford rear and you'll really have a nice car.
