would I experience any problems with daily driving with the track kit that is meant for 1500+ or is that just the "optimum" power range?

they are way to big for the gt-40 and E cam i have now. im using those till i get the other stuff. i have a 347. ill be selling the cam and gt-40 soon. its a genuine ford motorsport intake and its good but not quite enuf for those heads. im going rpm II instead of the victor efi so i can keep it kinda streetable

im going to have the motor balanced soon so i can. i have victor jrs. im going to get an rpm II intake to go with them and a custom grind cam.
If only I had that kind of money. I just have to take it one week at a time. Now, to end my day, I'm going to hit the hay.

i hear ya man. ive been saving for 3 months, and doing alot of it yourself saves $$ but the balancing and cam install will be done in a shop, and a dyno tune.

what does the 1500-6500 range mean? Is that what range your suppose to stay in or is that the best power range?

thats just where they get the most power. theyll improve power all the way thru but theyll give more power in that range. and you dont have to rev to 6500 to get the potential of these heads, but it would be cool if you could, balancing is like 180-220 dollas if you want to rev 6500. reving 6k would be finr though.

you ever heard people say stuff like "400 hp man, balanced and blueprinted"? well they take your motor apart and balance it, which im not sure exactly how, but it makes it able to rev alot higher without blowing up bebause its all balanced out better and in better sync.

My new motor hasn't been assembled yet. Where do I go to have it balanced and blueprinted? Can the same people assemble it once it's been balanced and blueprinted?
