I've got a Ford cobra 94/95 intake and a 65mm bbk tb coming for my otherwise stock car! I plan on doing ported stock heads or gt40P heads as well and some 373 gears will round out my planed package. (maybe some 1.7 rr's if they would make a significant difference). I plan on sticking with the stock cam, maf and injectors to keep it simple and avoid tuning issues.

Should I bolt on the cobra intake and tb while I'm looking for heads, or will it do basicly nothing for me without the heads?
 
itll definently do something. although for your head decision, your talking to a lot of die-hard AFR fans in here. bang for buck you cant beat them. but if you are wanting what you want, then good luck. i say just wait for when it comes time to get heads.
 
Depends how long its going to be before you buy heads. I just got a ported stock lower frm Tmoss this week and will be putting it in as soon as I can because I dont have a time frame for when I will be able to buy the heads. but if you know the heads are coming soon then just wait and do it all at once.

Two words: Edelbrock Performer. ;)

I'm going to try and prove all these AFR guys wrong pretty soon. :D

These guys are right, its a sickness and theres no cure for it

I've been fighting it for over 20 years....(r/c cars, mustangs, guns, jet skis, Mustangs...) I'm getting better, but I go into relaps when I haven't turned a wrench for 3 weeks. My jet ski's are sick, I went too far and started melting pistons regularly, so I backed them off a little, now the Mustang goes under the knife....

I read the Haynes manual about replacing heads and cams tonight..... I've got cold feet for the heads, intake doesn't look too bad. Heads look like a lot of really big rusted bolts that are hard to get at..... Not looking forward to getting the exhaust manifold bolts off, or prying the heads off.

I think I'll do the intake to get warmed up, then I'll be pumped to do the heads.
