Bry- I doubt that ford ever did the kind of internal balancing it sounds like you're into (from the factory, anyway). I will tell you that the 351w is one hellacious motor that will handle pretty much anything you throw at it--were you going to go the SEFI route or a fire-breathing dual carb setup? I've heard that B&M and Weiand make some dual screw huffers that are good for up to about 20 psi... Hope this helped a bit or just whetted your palate for more speed...
