this is my first post! hello everyone

I have a 65 mustang that has a 92 5.0 crate engine with a 5 speed toploader.


Mods on car:

MSD 6A
3.83 rear limited slip
600 cfm holley


Mods that I have sitting in my house ready to install: ( I will post pics of new parts in a few days)

AFR #1398 165cc
F303 cam .512/.512
crane 1.6 roller rockers
Ford racing push rods
Crosswind Intake part number: 54025 1500-6500 rpm
zex nitrous #82040 100-300 shot
dual purge kit


Does this seem like a good setup? I researched many hours on the net and it seemed like these were good parts to purchase. I was going to get the top end Trick flow kit but I was reading everyone is getting that kit. So I wanted something else.

Would it be safe to run a 100-150 shot of nitrous with a stock bottom end?

How do I know what compression my engine will be running?

And I want to Rev the engine to 6000-6200 is this safe for my setup? And how do I go about setting it up to run at this rpm

If any of you have any ideas or personal experience with these parts. Please let me hear all the info you can give me.

Didn't the crate engine come with roller rockers already?

To tell you the truth not really sure. The engine was in the car when I purchased it 3 years ago. But replacing the old rockers can't be a bad thing

Is that a roller cam sitting in the box?

the f303 cam is a Hydraulic Roller Tappet

Peak Torque: 2800
Peak HP: 6000

That's good; roller is the best way to go.
