Looking to freshen up the ole mill over the winter and want to run my intentions by you gear heads with tons of experience.
Its a coupe car and my full intention is to only drive on the street. It will never see a drag strip, I will not be concerned with getting a few extra horsepower or dropping my et in the 1/4. It will not be an everyday driver, something on the order of 2,000-3,000 miles a year tops. With that said heres the current plan,
347 Stroker - from DSS, Fordstrokers or CHP
(maybe short block, or maybe long block if I don't run across some heads)
Trick Flow 170's or AFR 165's
Trick Flow Track Heat Intake
Trick Flow Stage 1 Cam (have this with less than 500mi in current motor)
75mm Throttle Body
80mm MAF
30lb Injectors
255 lph fuel pump
You may ask why 347 and not just freshen up the 302 to 306, and the honest answer is because I just want more power easier with the extra displacement. Ive went conservative on the H/I/C side due to wanting streetability and also not really wanting to spend the extra cheddar for bigger heads and other intakes.
Would like for you guys to let me know if you think I am wasting my time and money on the current plan I have given what I expect to get out. If you think I am going to choke this motor out and would get the exact same performance from a 302 please let me know. I suppose another easier option would be for me to get a FRPP GT40 Crate. Anyways, I think you guys see where I am going. Looking forward to hearing some good feedback.
