need help with my 1st car

[351mustang65]

ok i don't know that much about performance parts or engines and i have picked out some pats i want for my 351w i am building and had a few things i wanted to ask. the parts i want are edelbrock rollin thunder roller cam and lifters crane roller rockers edelbrock performer rpm heads and air gap intake with 650cfm speed demon carb now what i want to know 1st off is do you thank that's a good setup for a street car and what type of power do you think it would put out and will a stock bottom end hold that setup and if i got a set of bear performer rpm heads would i have to do any work to them to put roller lifters and roller rockers on them?

oh and i have the stock 69 351 heads that came off the engine would i be better of having them ported and the work done so that i can put the roller rockers and lifters on them or going with the edelbrock's

I'd buy a set of AFR 165 heads, Performer RPM intake, and a Lunati Voodoo cam, and the crane rockers. I don't like the Edelbrock heads or their cams, they just don't make as good HP as other parts for just about the same $$ so I know what I'd rather buy

Id probably do the AFR 185's on the 351w however if you have the extra $$.

I work at competition products. Our tech guys are very knowledgable. If you like, give them a call at 1-800-233-0199. You don't have to buy anything. Just tell them what you have and what you want to do with it, and they'll be able to make some suggestions on what parts would work nicely for you. You can check out the website too at Competition Products

Do yourself a favor and checkout the sbf tech dot com (of course remove the spaces & replace dot with a .) website. The Ford engine tech there is the best I've found anywhere.
