Are you looking for aditional parts and supporting mods that you will need? Or are you just looking for input on how that particular setup will run?

i would like to know if that setup looks like it will match up nicley. Also i was planning on doing 24# injectors and mass air along with a bigger fuel pump and a 70mm throtle body.

Do you have any future plans (forced induction?) If so you may wanna just toss in bigger injectors now if you're going to need them in the future anyway. Don't forget headers too. You probably don't want to bolt stock garbage up to that setup.

Personally, I'm not a fan of the alphabet cams, but that's just personal preference. Before I give out my opinions on the setup, just curious what made you decide to get that matchup? (price, availability, already had some parts, etc)

Well the heads look like crap and only maybe a step above E6 heads found on the 86 mustangs. Another concern is the advertised GT40P's having 60cc chambers.

I most likely wont do forced induction. however i eventually would like to doa 331 stroker. I chose the intake because i like the trick flow intake. The cam because ive heardsome good things about it and it looks like a deacent one. Finally the heads i found them there and the availibilty was great. i dont know alot about heads but they looked good with the 1.94 inatke and 1.6 exhaust valves. Aldso i compared them to an AFR 165cc and they looked pretty similer. What are you thinking??

Why do you say that i dont know a whole lot about heads so some detail would be great

says no product found on heads link.

would recommend at least TFS stg 1 cam over the E
and a custom cam would be best.
