Default New Project, whats ur opinions???????(long)

The car is a 90 LX hatchback, Silver with tinted windows, 5-speed, UPR shifter. ON the inside Im adding NR automotive white faced gauges that glow at night like the 03 cobra ones. Outside Im lowering the car with Ford racing springs and adding 03 cobra rims (car already has 5-lug conversion). Engine wise its a 302 bored .030 over with a lunati cam same size as E303, motor has probe forged pistons. Im adding AFR 165's, BBK SSI intake, BBK 70mm TB, BBK 75 mm MAF, 30lb injectors, BBK CAI, Ford racing ALuminum Radiator, electric fan, MSD ignition, and coil. BBK long tubes, matching short x-pipe, with no cats, flowmaster 2 chambers. Aluminum driveshaft, energy suspension , motor mounts and transmisision mount. BBK caster-camber plates. Itll have a strut tower brace, Ford Racing 9mm wires. Adjustable fuel regulator. Ill have a chip burned for it. And it will have 3.73's out back. This car will be my friday night car that ill use for street racing. Im just little for a lil criticism on the parts, and oh do you think its possible to run with the new cobra's with that combo......even stock? Thanks. Oh and Ill have a 190 lpg fuel pump.

Carlo

oh yeah and next motoe for it will be a DSS AFR headed 331 with a Kenne Bell 2.2L blowzilla, running about 12lbs of boost.

well it looks to have alot of mismatch parts.. with 165's a 65mm tb and 24's at the most also the intake IMO doesn't match the heads

So maybe a GT-40 intake, 65mm TB , and 24lb injectors would work out alot better huh, I was actually thinking thart way, at least id be able to keep the bottom intke for when i get the KB. Thanks for the info guys.

Yeah thats a good intke, the only reason I would second guess it is a friend of mine has an RPM with an E303 cam and it doesnt pull that hard in the bottom and his car is almost exaclty like the one I am building with mino differences. Plus I was reading the new 5.0 and super ford mag and they did an intake test in there with 5 intakes.
