Hi Guys,
I recently purchases this 1971 351w mustang for 50,000 Pesos which is about 3,400.00 USD, engine is great running smoothly, some rust on trunk and engine bay nothing that bad, I am fixing brakes and suspension i will check it out after i can properly test drive it, interiors needs to be redone completely.
I wanted to ask for your help to get the best bang for the buck on restoration prices and also I want to have some big power for street, probably 500hp -460rwhp or 500rwhp dunno but something that other cars cant beat that easy.
How much power can i take from the engine 351w can it be stroked to 408? i have seen some top end kits from edelbrock
and I have seen this 2
350-2092 $2,242.99
RPM Power Package Top End Kit
Small Block Ford 351W 1969-95
Hydraulic Flat Tappet Camshaft & Lifters
400 HP, 412 TQ
or
350-2090 $2,959.99
RPM Power Package Top End Kit
Small Block Ford 351W 1969-95
Hydraulic Roller Camshaft (lifters not included)
E-CNC 185 Cylinder Heads
443 HP; 424 TQ
Both includes
Intake Manifold
Heads
Cams&Lifters (lifters on 2090 not included)
Timing Chain
Head & Intake Bolt Kit
Gaskets
Will both work fine for street? or 2090 is too aggresive for street.
Headers and Exhaust will be customed, Carb and Throttle I was thinking 600-650CFM, dont know which gears yet and If i go wild maybe 100 nitrous shot.
I would really appreciate if you could baby step me to get the power i want for this engine, this car will be driven as a regular car, not my daily car but regularly, I will paint in red with black and same in the interiors probably next month, also maybe later on upgrade suspension and brakes for the added power.
What you guys think?
