How much Power can you get out of a built 347? I was going to go the 408 route but now I'm looking at F/I. Here is my main ? If I wanted 700 to the ground What would i need to get it done. I know probably f1 something. But need some suggestions. and prices.

347's can make SO much power its not funny. A 408 will have more torque down low and a little more power up top. The TTi Stage X will give you huge HP and Tq on a 347ci.
The F1R/C will also make an insane amount of power on a 347 when it is setup/tuned right. A PERFECT example of this is Randy/Eatrice's car. He has an F1R and made 790rwhp. I plan on getting my F1C to around 700rwhp on my 347ci next week. Keep your compression low so you can run more boost. Expect to pay in the mid 20k range if you want 700rwhp.
As for parts you will need every tuner will have a specific preferance.
This is 347ci parts that I went with at MTI
Lunati Billet Rods
Wiseco Pistons 9:1.1
MTI G1 Camshaft (228/232, .588/.575 - 113 LSA)
Stock Crank
Prototype ATI F1C 5.73:1 supercharger
ECS brackets
Twin 4.5inch Intercooler's
3inch piping
Exedy Twin Disk
LS6 intake
ARP Head Studs
7.4 Inch Hardened Pushrods
DeWitts Rad.
LG Long tube headers
Cometic Head Gaskets
MTI Stage II LQ9 Cylinder Heads
Ferra Valves
Racetronix Fuel Pump
Kenne Bell Boost-a-pump
Double Roller Timing Chain
Ported and Polished Oil Pump
Comp R Roller Lifters
ECS 3.42 Gears with Harden shaft

The 1 7/8 is perfect for your aplication. The 1 5/8 would make a little more TQ

700rwhp isn't too hard to achieve on a 346 with pump gas, it just takes proper planning.

500rwhp with a Maggie or N20 you can achieve VERY easy. Price range from 3000-9000
700rwhp is VERY expensive when done right. Mid 20k with a built motor and all the ness. evils.
