    porting Roush 200 heads?

    best 347 h/c/i

    347 h/c/i i already have a running 347, my combo just wasn't right, i had the cam given to me with the car and i shouldn't have skimped out, i would have been better off selecting something for what i had, oh well. good point about the little stuff it does at up, but i have all the major...

    best 347 h/c/i

    what would be a good cost effective 347 h/c/i combo that will get me about 325rwhp on a mustang dyno for about $2000-$2500? i was wondering if the trickflow kit would get me close, i know the heads are a little small but the kit is well thought out and works good from what i hear. i know...

    porting heads, worth it?

    porting replies good feedback from everyone. i have some things to think about now. i'm kind of partial to the gt-40 because i previously had a edelbrock performer that worked good but was given up for the gt-40. one switch is enough i hope. a lot of this is dependent on application, and i...

    porting heads, worth it?

    Okay i've been thinking about porting my roush 200 heads just because they're not that great and my numbers are crap. I don't want to do a full on port job, i just need the exhaust opened up because that is the part lacking on these heads and maybe a clean up of the rest of the heads to get...

    347 stroker combo... good or bad???

    347 combo yeah so i went down to my guy that works on mustangs. i figured i spent this much why not actually do it right this time. i skimped on the parts didn't do good research, and well my ignition not working right may have something to do with this bad tune, and the cam isn't right...

    347 stroker combo... good or bad???

    347 combo thanks for the info. maybe i should invest in a fuel pressure regulator, just didn't think it was a must have, my mustang guy said i really didn't need one, so i took his word for it, he's been racing and building stangs for 20+ years, but i guess it wouldn't hurt. i've thought...
