Hey all,


I have a 89. Lx with a 302 and im wanting to do a few things to it to get a couple more horse power. I have some heads off a 69 fairelane ((351 windsor)), im planning on putting an E303 cam with 1:6 roller rockers, would you reccomend getting the heads port matched, and will the stock 5.0 h/o intake work with the heads???????????

I would not upgrade the cam and keep the stock intake. The stock lower is the biggest restriction on a 5.0L. Also, the E7 heads are the same heads you already have on your 302. I would recommend waiting on the cam until you have a combo that works well together. If you want to do it relatively inexpensive you could go with some Thumper heads, tmoss ported lower intake, and then the cam.
