I got my income tax return back and I did some shopping . Heres the setup I putting together:

my stock 302 shortblock
351W C90E heads milled to 10:1 comp. rebuilt and ported
B303 cam
Trick Flow street heat intake w/ 1" spacer
24# injectors
mass air conversion with chrome Pro-M 75mm MAF
polished 70mm throttle body and spacer
1.6 roller rockers
tall chrome valve covers
255 fuel pump
aluminum driveshaft
double roller timing chain
hardened push rods
BBK chrome 1 5/8" shortie headers
4.10 gears I love tax return time lol

I was gonna buy some aluminum heads but a friend of mine had these windsor heads on his 86gt and went high 11's and low 12's in the 1/4. I'm getting these heads, B303 cam, mass air conversion with Pro-M MAF, plus he's helping me install it all in his garage for $700. We're putting it together next week when all the other parts come in the mail. What do you think of this setup? I'll post the results when we get done.

That ought to run real good. The only suggestion i have is 1.7 rr's (if you haven't already purchased the 1.6rr's) b/c the B cam has 480 lift. That will help you take advantage of the breathing ability of those heads. Do those heads have bigger valves? I also have 351w castings w/ 1.94/1.60's stuffed in and home ported, but i'm working my OT season, and haven't got the pig fired up yet. Let me know how you make out, and how she runs.

i already got the 1.6rr. I rode in my friends 95gt tonight OMG! he put twisted wedge heads, trick flow R intake, kenne belle (I think he said?) custom grind cam, and 1.7rr, 4.56 gear, through 5speed...that bitch pulled hard on the highway! I can't wait till we get this done on my stang...I've been wanting to mod the motor for 2 years.
