Yeah, I should have rephrased that to street cruising. I only raced maybe 2 times against some rice burners. What I really ment to say is street riding. I.E putting on a show at the stoplights. I would never race in any unsafe condition. Sorry about the confusion. avanti-176, you nailed it right on the head. I'm a mechanic and saw too many friends do something stupid and crash cars or wrap them around a telephone pole. I've had a friend total his Cobra on an off-ramp, then gotanother one, but crashed it again. Hell, I don't think I've ever gotten mine above 90 on any street/highway. (I guess 4.10 gears help too.)

As for heads. I'm takng the motor out and am just gonna do heads without hr knowing the pice. God bless cash. How are the Edelbrock RPM heads? I'm now looking for higher end in the 1200-1400 dollar range complete. What about AFR heads?

Also, would it be better to get a Ford cam or something like a Edelbrock or equilivent? It needs to be able to be used with stock rocker arms and pushrods. I was really leaning toward the Edelbrock cam and heads or the Crane cams until all you guys started recommending the Ford cams. Do they put out the same horsepower and torque?

And the manifold. As it turns out, I have an Edelbrock performer manifold. Therefore I'll think I won't change that around.

Once again, I don't care about idle or emissions.
