Hey all. Have a 95 GT 5.0 and am in the process of a HCI swap. I'm going with the TFS TW 170 heads with the 61cc chambers (I guess the 58ccs wont clear stock pistons?) and a weiand stealth intake.
First thing, I know I have to run a distributor from a 85 (for roller cam and carb ap) and ford duraspark ii box and convert fuel pump.
Can you recomend me a fuel pump and set up suited for this application for a carb. Going to be running a 650 or 600 CFM.
Also with what I have listed so far is there anyone that can recomend me a good torquey cam that will clear the TFS heads and stock pistons with 1.7 rr's?
I am at an elevation of 5500 feet any jets that you guys can recoment (still going to have to play with a few sizes I know)
Thanks so much stangnet!
PS before getting heat about the carb swap, the reasons i am doing this is because A)its much cheaper and easier to build power with a carb. (dont see many drag cars running efi.... )
B) I live in the middle of nowhere and no dynos around and dont have time or money to get an EFI tune.
C) I have gone thru my share of 351 clevelands, air cooled VW engiens, 460's and FE motors and am far more comfortable with tuning a carb! Did i mention budget? I do not want to hear crap about this cause this is what im doing, im looking for guidance and to learn not to be put down for what I want to do!
LOL Thanks again
