Engine is a 289 bored 30 over with flat top forged pistons (4 valve reliefs), Compression ratio should be between 9.5 or 10 to 1 (used online calculator)
Going with retrofit link bar roller lifters (Howards)
Installing an Edelbrock EDL-2221 http://www.summitracing.com/parts/ed...view/make/ford
Sticking a set of slightly ported/polished Windsor JR iron heads on
Running and Edelbrock RPM Airgap intake and a 1406 carb
Does it seem like it will be an ok combo? I just want it to get out of its own way not looking to drag race or anything just a hot street performer.
The car is will have a T5 transmission and a limited slip 3.80 rear in it.
I know it is a little late to asked that question, engine is on the way to the builder this evening and all the parts are in my hands...
