Hey guys maybe you can help me out. I have no clue where to go next here. I need to build a shortblock for my very tired 86 5.0 but not sure what I need to work with what I have. These are the parts I have so far....
1) frpp cobra valve covers
2) comp cam xe266hr (used 2500 miles) (216-224 DUR 544-555 LIFT 112 LOBE)
3) FMS GT40 upper/lower
4) edelbrock performer heads (used 8,000km) (don't have them in my hands yet)
5) hiland sharp 1.6 roller rockers
6) frpp 76 mass air
7) frpp 30lb injectors
8) fms oil pump and fms shaft
9) a9s computer and granatelli wiring kit
10) fms 65mm tb and spacer
11) fms ultra coil
12) frpp freeze plug/dowel set
If I throw in a 306 block or 347 depending on what I can afford what size of pushrods and lifters do I need with this combo?
As well when I get the heads what I need to do to them to get them ready to bolt-on?
Can I use a stock oil pan (neg/pos)?
All I had on the car before was the gt40 and the TB stuff. The interior and everything that isn't needed has been deleted (console, rear seats , sway bar etc) I know I won't get 800 horsepower out of this but would 300 seem fair?
Any help with what you would do would be of a big help...
