I am building a carbureted 302 for my 66' mustang. I found a really good deal on a set of GT-40P heads that have been rebuilt, have aftermarket valve springs, some light porting work in the bowls, and a set of roller rockers
(1.7 I believe). I am using a "freshened up" stock 5.0 short block with original pistons and new rings, rod and main bearings, as well as ARP rod bolts. I need to make a decision on what cam will work best with these heads. In searching old threads, a lot of people like the TFS stage 1 cam and there is always a following for the Ford Letter cams, both B & E with these heads. I am also thinking a dual plane victor jr. intake and probably a 650cfm Holley street avenger. The car has a C4 and 3.55 gears in a Ford 8" rear. It's a pretty light car too (no exact numbers yet). It will primarily be a street/cruising car so I want to build a good low end to mid-range motor with lots of torque down low.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks
