Are 347 strokers reliable?
Reliability/durability/longevity is all about how you build it – same as any other engine. Some early (1990s) 347 stroker kits got a bad rep for oil consumption due to poor piston design – this had nothing to do with the additional stroke length per se.
What engine is a 347 stroker?
Ford 302 engine
In essence, a 347 stroker is a Ford 302 engine that is “stroked” by installing a larger crankshaft (and other modifications inside the engine) to have the pistons travel up-and-down further creating more engine displacement (size) and more torque.
Is a 347 stroker a good motor?
Some early (1990s) 347 stroker kits got a bad rep for oil consumption due to poor piston design – this had nothing to do with the additional stroke length per se. Build it right, use good parts, and take care of it – like you should with ANY engine build – and it will last a long time.
What makes a 347 stroker?

What was the original plan for the shermanator 347?
Initially the pump gas 347 was to be built around a budget rotating assembly. Joe ordered the parts and when the pistons arrived with several different styles of valve notches, Joe decided to revert to Plan B, using engine components he knew and trusted.
What kind of gas does a shermanator 347 use?
The plan was to build a 347 and a 357 off of the Ford 302 Windsor platform. Shermanator I was designed to run on pump gas, make 500 hp and not break the bank.
How to make 530 hp from 347 cubic inches?
The real key to making 530 hp from 347 cubic inches on pump gas is the Airflow Research (AFR) aluminum cylinder heads. AFR is selling these heads like hotcakes. They come in a few different sizes and options.
How big are the connecting rods on a shermanator 347?
Scat got the call for the connecting rods as well. Joe selected a set of 4340 I-Beam-style rods that measure 5.40″ center-to-center. The longer rods (stock measure 5.09″) allow the pistons to clear the stroker crankshaft counterweights and provide a more favorable rod ratio.
