I have a 1990 Saleen in which I'm getting ready to add some power to. I've run nitrous and superchargers in the past with other 5.0 mustangs and was thinking about going with the Hellion Heat turbo. Anyone had any experience with these and what's a good cylinder head to use with them.
Thanks

I've heard they're great kits.. although I don't know how much different they are from B&G kits? as far as heads go.. what are your goals?

I'm no expert but I bet you can make more power than the block can handle with whatever heads you have on it now.

I don't really know what my goal would be. The car is a 1990 Saleen and I don't really want to heavily mod it. I bought the car in 1993 and had a paxton on it for a while then returned it to stock. I sold the car to my father and now I've gotten it back so I just wanna use it for a go fast on the weekends kinda project. Married now with a daughter so I won't be pouring alot of money into it. I have 98 Explorer motor and was thinking about putting it in the car to save the original engine from any major mishaps. I guess I'd like to run 11's at the track occasionally as a goal.

I'll have to get some pic's soon. Anyone know of someone who might be interested in buying a 1994 S-351? Teal green, non supercharged, 20k something on the mileage.
