    summit 75mm throttle body w/ spacer
    3/4 intake spacer

    edelbrok victor jr heads thinking about having them shaved for higher compression?

    i was wondering will i have any issues with the above setup? or anything i should sub for. i really would like to hit the 350-400hp area. my future goal is a nx n20 kit 75-100hp shot. thanks for taking the time to read and reply!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That sounds like a stout setup. With that setup have you thought about going stroker? That HCI with 30 # injectors, and a 347 bottom end I think you could hit the 350 hp mark alot easier!

    yeah i have tossed it around, but i wanted to leave something for future mods. i wanted to build the top end then have the bottom done if a few years. if money was not a problem i would do all of the above hci, 347 stroker w/ a decent procharger setup. lets hope i win the $165 million powerball tonight..lol

    i wanted to ask before we completely dismiss the stroker kit. what would be the easier kit 331 or 347?. i was looking on strokerkits.com and they have 347 kits starting around $1200 i could swing that if i dont get the heads since i have to include the machine work and cost of labor since thats something thats out of my league...if i just went 347 stroker with a intake , cam, 75mm tb and 34lb injectors what do you think my hp gains would be over stock?. sorry for the newbie questions

    Man I gotta tell ya, the E7 heads Will just not even flow at all!! I think you would make like 35 more hp haha. If heads will substitute for the stroker kit then I would just do heads cam and intake. Stroker later I guess if you wanted.
