yeah but your forgetting one thing a 347 will walk away from a 351 all day long and most 351's are dogs  mostly just extra weight unless you redo the whole thing a cam .30 over and new heads up the comp. and then you need the headers intakes oil pan and im not sure but dont the acc. brakets need to be diff. and when it's all said and done you probably spend some more cash and have a 347 that runs like a son of a .  with small changes . like some gt40's and a cam and intake bc stock stuff still sucks but you will have an ass load of tourqe that the 351 cant touch. when it's all said and done. 

the hardest thing about the 347 is the block work . you could also do a 342 a 347 stroker kit that isnt .30 over. it's been done.

i myself was thinking of the 347 but think it may be much for the stang but would have been great in the cougar.

Just remember, that any trick you can do to a 5.0 based engine, also applies to a 5.8-I saw a 427 Windsor that was just sick, no 347 in the land would touch it, it was about a 15,000 dollar engine   
I would stick to a 331, or a bit bigger, with a blower, and a decent shot of nitrous...'course, that 427 stroker kit is mostly aluminum-so the weight is offset-it's you call

get a beefed up hampster and a good hapster wheel, then weld that bitch to the imput shaft. you'll do burnouts all day with that combo :p

if this would have been my first post I would not be back. I guess I just got lucky and you guys were nice to me. I dont mean to diss nobody or nothing, but I didnt know nothing when I came to the boards, and I wouldnt think very good things about it if that was one of my first posts.
