2 questions for those of you who have Thumper heads:
Did you use the stock injectors?
Did you use the stock intake?
thanks, chris

i sent him a pm.giddyup306 said:Injectors will be fine. Might wanna hit up Tmoss and have him port that lower intake for ya or go with an aftermarket.
i know, but i need to stay within my budget. that's why i sent a pm to tmoss, to get a price. porting the lower intake probably costs less than buying a new one. when the cash presents itself, i'll upgrade the intake.willys1 said:Thumper heads are a great upgrade.But the stock lower intake chokes the motor.You wont get the full potential out of the heads if you keep the stock intake.
The intake is already gonna be off,,scrape together 130 bucks and do it at the same time!!! The combo is good for 60 or more HPBlack96VertGT said:i know, but i need to stay within my budget. that's why i sent a pm to tmoss, to get a price. porting the lower intake probably costs less than buying a new one. when the cash presents itself, i'll upgrade the intake.
ok.90mustangGT said:Your better off doing it all at once, the cost of gaskets (which you will need Fel-pro 1250's with Tmoss intake) and the time put into it, I would just spend the extra $130. Also, the spring upgrade on the thumper's is a good idea if you plan on any more lift at all.

what about the combo with the cam/timing chain w/3 position key way? is that a good deal for ($890) or am i better off with the $695 deal? will the "E" cam work with a 1995 manual tranny (the web site says it is for AOD cars)? i don't want the "B" cam because the idle will be too rough for my liking (read that "my wife will probably notice it!")
got it. plus, that will free up a couple hundred for a lower intake!90mustangGT said:Since you are on a budget, I would go with the head combo with springs and the Timing chain. The stock cam isn't a bad peice. I ran the stock cam for a while with my combo. Many have had sucsess with retarding the stock cam 2-4* to give it more top end. Honestly, your better off this way until you have more done to your motor and then getting a custom cam. I got my cam for $70, but don't think it is all that great, Bcam.
