Hey, thanks for all the tech info, just what i needed, although 88ttops hit on the head, im going to stick with theF cam installed due to the fact the local machine shop already did the work, and i dont feel comfortable changing it myself. I cant use the TFS heads because my pistons (Keith Black flat tops) have stock valve reliefs. Its a different eagle part number if your going to use TFS heads, soooo im leaning towards the AFR 185, with a TFS track R intake? that sound about right 375HP at the wheels? whacha think? The car is just going to bea weekend driver. any more sugestions would befantastic!
In all honesty you may make that at the motor but more like 320-350 at the wheels with that set up...

Edit: the trick flow R is a great choice.. But may be a little much right now.. To make it work i would go edelbrock RPM2 with that combo..

In all honesty you need sub frame connectors and torque box reinforcements asap!

some of you guys need to get out a little more and talk to people with a little more experience. Nothing less than the afr 185s and i would use the R intake.

To the OP i answered in your OTHER thread already dont make DOUBLE post in more than one section its against the rules.

THANK YOU.

why put the "minimum" size head on an engine?
Yahoo's like 88ttops need to think before they speak.

You REALLY need to do that cam swap too. "F" cam has 302 valve durrations
which can cause compression problems on strokers cause they close too soon.
You will NOT hit 375rwhp with that cam, be lucky to hit 320rwhp even with AFR 185's

It was grilled at me over and over, during my 351W build, by people who do know what they are talking about
like Jay Allen and Woody at Fordstrokers.com to name names, and I think they know
what they are talking about.

LOL ok go ahead but the biggest head you can stick on there change the cam get the fuel system ohh then you'll need the chassis and the rear end lets just build him a race car.. Go john force go.. I think he wants to be somewhat streetable...

Edit: Ohhh i forgot you are going to need the computer chipped but since were going all the way go with the Stand alone XFI system..
