rcdblink, all of the above is very good, also go to summit racing .com & look at the trick flo kit they offer. the parts in this kit is matched for each other. you can choose different intakes , also you can run 2.02 valves with these tfs-tw heads. horse power is 350 . mine runs good, pulls hard all the way to the rev limiter. good luck with it and let us know your progress.

This has been great input so far. I think I'm stickin with the bottom end I've got, puttin on some AFR185's, a holley intake, and maybe a vortech. That cobra bottom end is strong as hell. Ya'll think it can handle some boost?

Yeah, I wouldn;t throw a ton of boost at it, but it could probably handle 9-11 ok. Be sure to get a good blower cam. Call AFM or FTI and talk to them. They could recommend a good off the shelf cam if you choose to do so. If it were me, I would definetely go custom though.

As far as wedbsites for the companies I posted, just go do a Google search on them.
