the idea is run a stock bottom end as long as possible, not out of saving money..a bottom end build is well within my budget, i just get a kick out of seeing what i can make out of the 2v on a stock bottem end, and as stated above i agree the TF heads w/38cc chamber and some stage 2 cams along with my bolt onsand full exhaust w/ longtubes would be a nice little street car

guy on modular fords make 350 at the wheels. running out of cam and RPM's on his stock bottom end. his tuner said if he had a cam better suited for the heads and the right bottom end he could prob see 370-380.

+1. that is a big waste of 2400 bucks not counting dyno tune for an additional 20-25 more rwhp. Definitely keep your money. Blower all day long and don't look back.

You should wake up and smell the airflow...Its all in the cam profile, it is possible, and has already been done. Try calling some shops, like MMR for example, and talk with them and you will get some useful info. There's also a few guys one these message boards that have very good information, just got to pay attention. Maybe when these are in circulation a bit more by next year, and more people have the first hand experience to share with others, it will be realized their potential.

Is anyone surprised that the guy on moddedmustangs had to change back to stock COPS FROM GMS POS COPS? I am not.. lol

N/A is the way to play.. Always been a fan of it myself. If you got the dough to spend these heads are the way to go.

That guy on modded mustangs is running stock internals still too isn't he? Imagine, this is on like 11.7 compression, and not revving past like what maybe 6k?or 6.5k? Imagine with a built motor, revving much higher, with higher compression...400rwhp is easily achievable. I love N/A motors myself, and I just can't decide yet if I want to build a motor yet or not..
