wrong wrong wrong
your first mistake is using the stock heads, they are the choking point on a 5.0, if your on a budget try getting some GT40s from a latemodel explorer, that f cam is abit outdated something with a dual pattern would be better. Is this an auto or 5spd? you probably wont need a chip. get the gt40 intake from the explorer,

get a set of heads and f-cam will clear stock pistons fine but always check ptv irregardless and get an intake, like the cobra or gt-40 don't even think of choking the motor with a stock intake and 1.6 rockers are fine
