Trick Flow Twisted wedge heads

[94_5.0]

I just bought a set of T/F T/W heads with 1.6 RR on them. I was wondering if I needed to notch my pistons with the setup that I have?

Does my cam (E-303) have to much lift or is it just fine?

Thanks in advance for all of the help.

Youll be fine. I belive the E-cam is about the same lift as the TF stage 1 and that one has plenty of clearance.

never hurts to check but you'll be fine.

Hey civiceater what length push rods do I need with these heads?

6.750 inch hardened push rod on 302ci base hydrolic roller motors

Sweet thanks ponyboy. now is it adviseable to change out the lifters as well? If so what should I get?

your lifters should be fine... Depends on how many miles you have on them... There are plenty of people running 170k+ on stock lifters. But then again with this added lift and spring pressure it couldn't hurt anything..

I also think you will be good, but I would def. check the p/v clearance on a cam swap to be sure. As for the lifters, I still run my stockers...and my stock pushrods.
So hows Hawaii treating you man?
Good Luck

I know people who have the factory lifters that have been in several motors, Probably ok to leave them, I did in my last combination, but a new set of Ford Motorsport hydrolic roller lifters would hurt either. My friend did have a couple go bad.

..and my stock pushrods.

just for clarification you must not have TFS heads if your using stock push rods.

Yup, I'm running Ebrocks...so disreguard.
