If I can get AROUND 360hp with a h/c/i combo thats what Im gonna do

The trickflow top end kit sounds just right for you then and most of the thinking has already been done for you by trickflow. You just need a sound short block and the kit and you should be good to go.

Why not reuse mine

final5-0 · Aug 14, 2010

Like Chris said above

360 fwhp is dooable as 360 X .85 = 306 rwhp ... stick trans

Since so many dyno pulls these days are done with a STD calibration
which usually yields higher results
than the SAE cal which usued to be the norm ..........

You should be able to make your goal happen

You won't do that with OEM or GT40 stuff so we're talking aftermarket

You'll need ALL supporting stuff like inj's, tb, meter, and the like :Word:

Also ... you won't make it with elevated fuel pressure and dizzy twisting
well
Maybe you could do it for WOT or Dyno numbers alone
but
It won't behave on the street worth a dam that is for sure

Seems like you could find a low mileage sb from a junkyard for less
than you could rebuild yours

You just have to do the research in your area to see

Why not get one of these reman short blocks??? $699 + 135 shipping

1979-95 Mustang 5.0L 302 Economy Short Block, Accepts Roller Cam at LRS - Same Day Shipping!

Bolt on these..... $2449.99

1987-93 Mustang 5.0L Top End Engine Kit With Black Trick Flow Street Heat Intake, Twisted Wedge Heads And Trick Flow Stage 1 Camshaft at LRS - Same Day Shipping!

And don't forget one of these....... $59.99

1994-95 Mustang Gt 5.0L Efi Professional Products Satin Intake Adapter at LRS - Same Day Shipping!

Then get a mail order tune from someone (I got mine from DirtyDirtyRacing for $179.99).

Total $3523.97

Keep in mind some of these parts can be found elsewhere for cheaper but I like ordering as many things as possible from one place to minimize shipping cost.

Then you can get the other stuff you will want to upgrade with the left over money, or can wait till later because most of your stock parts will work with these aftermarket ones.

I think you will do better with a Trick Flow kit. The heads are a legitamately better design than the Edelbrock heads. You can get away without a tune with a mild cam. Any of those 350hp kits, and you care going to need a tune. Keep in mind, if you have an auto trans, it's still going to run 15.0 if you put all that power through a stock trans. To get it to move, you're going to need to do trans pak and a converter. Might as well rebuild the transmission while you have it apart. The converter is going to be key in making the car streetable.

On this TFS kit its says
CNC-Machined Intake Runner No
CNC-Machined Exhaust Runner No
CNC-Machined Combustion Chamber No
Steam Holes Drilled No
Machined for O-Ring No
Heat Crossover No

What is all this and is it necessary? Also what what about my stock TB? Will it bolt right up to this, or should I get a new one? Also is what about EGR

You need the 94/95 elbow adapter and thats it.

A quick google search will tell you what that stuff is, and no it is not necessary. Like Adam said, all you need to mount your throttle body is the adapter like the one I listed in my previous post. This adapter will connect your egr valve to your new intake also. Eventually a bigger TB would be a good addition to your setup.

K TY.. And what about mod stages

What are mod stages?????

UTGAMER · Aug 15, 2010

Sorry. You know when parts are labeled as stage 1,2,3

BlackVert · Aug 15, 2010

1 means pretty mild (less power, less radical, more daily drivable), 3 means very radical, 2 is in between 1 and 3.

UTGAMER · Aug 15, 2010

Anyone know what cam comes with the track heat kit? Just says at bottom that it suits the kit lol

whitesqual · Aug 15, 2010

I believe it comes with the TFS 1 Cam, but I am not certain.

Correct.

You do not need anything more then this.

UTGAMER · Aug 16, 2010

hmm. Should I upgrade that or is that whats best for that combo

The combo is built that way for a reason the TFS 1 cam is fine.

The more radical you get the more issues with PTV clearance and tuning issues.

Venom351R · Aug 16, 2010

A trickflow top end kit on your current engine block will be fine. Usually a dyno tune costs around the $500 range but can be more can be less. Its best to find and call the nearest dyno shop near you and ask.
