    Tri-Y clearance issue ?'s

    I just installed some ceramic coated try-y's I bought from Mustangs Unlimited. Drivers side looks great, but the passenger side not so great. The #1 cylinder tube rubbed the shock tower. I used the old reliable hammer and flattened the tube slightly. I now have about 1/8" clearance or so...

    What are 351 F4TE intake & heads worth ? I'm considering using a '95 351 for a stroker build up and found a good (complete) candidate to use in a truck. What would the heads and EFI intake be worth to recoup a little cash ? I guess the cranks and pistons won't be used either for that matter...
