hey guyz what's up am thinking of buying a 92 5.0 mustang and modifying it to the followng :

a 351 W engine performed with eagle strocker fully forged and changing cylheads to aluminium GT40 fordracing cylinder heads planning to reach 11:1 compression ratio with a fully mechanical flat tappet cam kit and 750cfm demon carburator with a weiand intake manifold and trying to use this car for

a daily drive and using nitros oxide system up to 300 hp of nos .... so what do u think and what opinions do u have about this one ... knowing that my differentail is going to be 8.8'' differentail at a 3.73 ring&pinion ratio ...waiting for ur thoughts and ideas

GT40 heads are a little small for a stroker 302.. let alone a stroker 351 which can reaches cubes in excess of 400. .... basically what I am saying is that you will need larger heads...

and honestly, it sounds like you are just simply pulling parts out of a magazine so its good you asked first so you can get some real research done...

and IMO, and this is just my opinion... 11+ compression ratios are a little much for a big cube daily driver... It will not be tame.. not tame at all and you will need to run 93+ octane all the time (possibly higher than that depending).

Yeah that combo seems like a lot for a DD. People have done it a lot but why ould you really want to? Also the heads you chose are too small. If I was doing a 351W daily driver I would build a roller motor. With a 300 shot you will probably be breaking parts a lot (like pulleys or belts). IMO.
