you will get there someday. Just read the forums you will learn a lot from them and most of it is personal experience for most of us.

Ok, now i'd like to know about the cooling/fuel system. I'm going to be getting the radiator listed above and an electric fan, but what else do I need to get? I would love to get the complete Aeromotive fuel system, but I dont think I will be able to afford it yet. What do I have to get at a minimum to support my combo before and after I get the blower?

Thanks Again

You should get a 180 thermostat and the ford racing blue hose radiator hose are good too

The pump, regulator and injectors are all I need for the fuel system? Do you think the stock fuel lines will support it?

stock lines should be plenty. i know guys running with bosst and n/a making over 400hp with there stock lines and rails. also, spend the extra money and get yourslef a set of long tubes, way more power then just shorties, and what kinda piston are u r gonna run? does that shortblock come with flat tops, dome or dished pistons?
