OK, I am going to be building a 351 solid roller engine over the winter here putting it in to the stang. I'm having troubles deciding what heads/intake/cam to go with however because there isn't nearly as much info on the internet about this as there is about 302's. Anyway, I am going to be daily driving this thing in the summer and taking it to the track almost every weekend. It will be running 11:1 compression hoping for 350 whp or so. Short block will be either the DSS Pro Bullet or DSS Super Pro Bullet (haven't decided yet). Nitrous will probably be added down the line, but I am more concerned about the n/a performance. I don't mind a lopey cam, but nothing insane and I do want DECENT street manners. I am also planning 1 3/4 inch headers for this thing with 3" H pipe and 3" dumps.

Anyway, just throw your opinions out there on what you would do and why. Articles/dyno graphs are good too

Thanks.

Not too knowledgeable about the 5.8, but to get the ball rolling for ya, I believe that an RPM II and some Victor jr.'s with a custom cam would probably suffice you quite nicely IMO...

I would say some TFS Hi Ports and a holley intake with a custom cam. That will EASILY get you 350whp(did u mean rwhp?)
