I was originally going to write one long monotonous post but i decided that i would get all of my questions better answered if i seperated them and didn’t bore you guys to death. First i’ll ask opinions on my projected setup. I plan on running trick flow twisted wedge heads, stage 1 cam, and street heat intake, 1.6 roller rocker arms, and timing set all from trick flow. Upgrading to ford racing plug wires with an msd distributor, coil, and 6AL ignition. For fuel i’m upgrading the fuel rails, lines, and getting an adjustable fuel regulator all from aeromotive industries topping it off with a high flow fuel pump from ford racing. I plan on using a 100 shot of nitrous with this combo also. With this setup what kind of 1/4 miles times and horsepower numbers am i looking at? Any recommended changes and/or other additions. Is it necessary to upgrade any of the internals with this setup?

oops. forgot some stuff. I will also be using the C&L 76mm MAF system which includes their trueform intake pipe and a bigger throttle body. Would i be better off with a wet kit or a dry kit for a 100 shot of nitrous and what size fuel injectors should i run with my setup. i was thinking 24lb but i don’t know if it will be enough. Also should i get a 70mm or 75mm throttle body and which brands do you recommend for a throttle body? I’m thinking about going with the Bassanni headers and x-pipe combo. Anybody used them before or recommend something else? And last but not least i’ll be using a set of underdrive pulleys from ford racing and should i go with the 3:55 or the 3:73 gears? My overall goal is to run low 13’s hopefully 12’s and make a respectable attempt at passing california emissions.

Not too familiar w/ nitrous shots but probably mid 12's at least -
