I think if you investigate a high rpm setup you will quickly alter your opinion on budget.Cheaper? Maybe. More fun? Nah, probably not. A 408 will make oodles of silly power, plus I enjoy building engines.

Honestly I think an r intake will be too much for your heads. A track heat would be a better option.
I found so me good research from Tmoss where they put TFS R and a Gt40, holley, rpm against it with a 347 and the numbers traded 27rwtq for 25rwhp up to 6500 rpms, so id rather keep the street torque cause im not turnning more rpms than that on the street.
Nik, do you think one day you could make a video driving your car in rush hour traffic? Just to highlight how streetable your combo is with that cam.
This thread should be stickied, just so other owners could see what can be done with a stock 302 bottom end and a well-researched heads/cam/intake combo
Wasn't there gonna be an engine build in here at some point, Nik? What's the word?
Yea, the remains of a roller 351 are scattered around my garage, along with an unassembled TKO, half of a panhard bar, parts to get A/C back in my car, a half built Stirling engine, an un-plumbed garage sink/cabinet project, an unfinished wooden wine glass rack, materials to landscape a walking path in my back yard... and probably a dozen other odds and ends. LOL! My wife has begun forbidding me from starting new projects.
hi Nik did you install the tfs box r intake? id be all over it if it would clear a stock hood...
