$14K seems a little steep for a OEM blocked 347 where you supply a core... Personally I dont like leaning too hard on factory blocks with a stroker, that seems to be the recipe which beaks them.

If you're careful with your parts selection you could have an SHP blocked 347 or 363 for that money complete from intake to sump, either building here or purchasing a long assembly from the USA.
