GT40 setup

the tw heads will line up well port wise with a tfs intake, addermk2's offer would be a good idea....I have the eddy 2 intake and it lined up well with my eddy heads, but when I test fit a tfs intake the ports were larger on the intake vs my heads so an eddy was my best bet, yours will be tfs

The edelbrock rpm2 intake is a very good intake. Makes more top end horsepower than both the trick flow street manifold and the track heat. The only trick flow manifold that would make more is the R series, which is pretty expense. The intake you have is already one of the best.

Thanks for all the help guys, just got back from picking up the heads, $950 brand new tfs tw in the box with pushrods!!!!!! I SCORED!! I think I might try the eddie intake, to see how/if it lines up ok?

the biggest problems i see are the converter and gears ... you need 3k MINIMUM, i had a 2220 in my old '90 and it felt stock
3.55 gears ? you need 4.10's , a lot of AOD cars had 3.27's stock and 1 gearset swap you wont feel too much.
the top end looks good, i would definitely port the heads though. at minimum do the exhaust ports and smooth the turns in the intake ports. comp valve job is a must.
other than that your good, you could hit 300 hp, but the aod will rob you some of it.
that setup and a good launch you could hit 12's, your setup will only hit 13.50's best
your lacking leverage bigtime
