I don't have much input except to say that a 6.4 block stroker engine would be wicked as sin. Looking forward to your build whatever you decide...

I personally lean towards the turbo side. But if you're looking for a snotty intimidating hot rod motor that's not the right option. Nothing sounds more wicked going down the street than a nasty naturally aspirated motor. It's your build, your choice.
1975 Jeep Cherokee compound turbo 5.7 Hemi/6 speed AutoX/Drag/Street. 9.97 @ 140 slicks, 10.74 in autox trim

I voted Procharger because that's what I Have. A turbo would be how I'd go if it was in an old car. Stroker don't make enough power when you want to go real fast. How hard are you going to beat on it?
I have no ET goals, just want to build something that will run with a Hellcat.

BES built a 401 NA that made 700 under 6500 RPM for the engine masters a few years back, add another 20-30 cubes, a few more RPM and don't follow all the engine master rules and a normal guy should be able to do it.
I like NA because it is more simple under the hood than any other power adder. I get sick of working on these new fangled cars for a living because they try to stuff so much stuff under the hood, I want my hotrod to be simple.
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

If you want to read a well-written discussion of 300M, go to the website: http://www.epi-eng.com/Then click on the Piston Engine Technology button, then on the connecting rod subject. Whether your connecting rods have notch sensitivity or not depends on the heat treat. This is discussed in that chapter. R.

A 2.9 Whipple will make a 1000 hp, it's fairly affordable, and it's a bolt on, give you plenty of leg to outrun a Hellcat. Turbos make a pile of HP but so does a twin screw. A supercharger would look more at home in a muscle car and give you that snorty, instant throttle response If you call $7000 plus affordable.
