88 GT MAF conversion car w 3.73s otherwise stock.

For its waiting HCI upgrade, I have track heat upper and lower intakes, 75mm throttle body #24 injectors.

I have everything but the cam, heads, and timing chain.

Stock bottom end car, what heads will work best with my setup without PTV issues. I plan on making most possible power w/ stock bottom end N/A no boost no juice.

5.0L/302, FORD, Trick Flow Specialties - trickflow.com

I was considering the 190cc Track heat heads? what kind of cam?

i went with AFR 165 heads and trickflow stage 1 cam and streetheat intake am in the process of installing these but from what i heard it should be a very good combo, also i shouldnt have any PTV problems, from what i read you will have to nothch the piston heads to get the clearence, only way to know is check PTV cause its different on each car
