Im planning on rebuilding my engine in the spring and was looking at stroker kits. I have heard that this will totally mess with my computer and not work though. I have also heard that Holley offers something that might help with their Projection series but was hoping for some advice from someone who may have done something similar to this. thanks

I would think your 351 is EFI, why would you want to go TBI? Im not even sure if Ford did the TBI thing, I know GM did, but was unaware Ford had TBI motors as well. With a stroker kit, and with and other EFI motor, good computer tuning is always needed. It would probably run without any tweeks, but it wouldnt run very strong.
