RE: intake and manifold???
I hope this information will help you some:
As of right now this is what I have in my 1994 5.0
-GT-40e Manifold (Upper and lower)
-65mm TB
-70mm MAF
-MAC U-Pullies
-MAC Headers
-Flowmaster exhaust (2 1/2")
-BBK CAI
-3.73 gears
I dynoed at 224.2 RWHP and 300.5 Torque.@ 4000RPM
I am adding the following over the next two weekends:
-Twisted wedge heads and 1.6 rr
-Double roller timing chain
-e303 cam
-new push rods
-new lifters
-24 lbs inj
-225 lph in tank fuel pump
-Tuning by the Dynoshop in San Diego
I want to reach the 300HP mark, I hope with this new set up I can achieve that, I will let you know in the next couple of weeks. Good luck with your set up and I hope this info helped.

thought there was a hot rod or fast ford article on the 165AFRs,the motor only had 24lbs.injectors,cobra intake and 70mm throttle body. They were saying 400hp. Also think it had a small cam(maybe B or E cam). Will do more research. Good luck!! Keep us posted.

Ive read something like that also, Im not sure if it was 400hp though but it was alot. AFR is a GREAT company and I have never heard anything bad about them and they make excellent power! Check out the 165's. If you are looking for the best heads for a street combo look into AFR. Remeber, you get what you pay for

88blue, you are correct on the AFR's. I did a lot of research on heads and AFR is the best company that puts out a great set of heads and yes they are expensive. One of the reasons I did not go AFR. So, if you have money to burn then buy a set of AFR heads, you will not be dissapointed.

Your best bet is to buy a the TrickFlow package .. Comes with Tqiested Wedge heads Track or Street heat Upper and Lower Manifod , A really good cam , and a **** load of other **** for about 2 grand
They really do offer a nice setup though. def. worth looking into
