I have 2 motors an various parts that I want to build 1 good street EFI motor for my 65. I would like to shoot for the 350-400hp, but that might be out of reach for now. I have been running the Edelbrock performer upper and lower on a stock motor and it really doesn't pull until higher RPMS.

I have a set of GT40 heads I was going to use, and swap to 24lbs injectors, and a 75mm mass air meter. Will this combo make the Edelbrock performer pull better on the low end?

I am swapping over to a t5, and I'm not sure which cam to run. I having been searching and it looks like the E303 cam works well with the gt40's. any other suggestions?
 
Yes the heads and the parts you have will help your pull stronger but i would go with a trickflow stage1 cam. Because it has split duration and more duration on the exhaust side and that will help your motor/head combo perform better plus with more exhaust duration you motor will breathe better.
