OK, I'm starting to see the issues more clear now, it seems my posts are not being read for what they are and some are taking things to a different level or meaning. I'm in no way shape or form saying gt40 heads are the best or should be used for everything, if you go back to my original post...

I think everyone is taking what Im saying wrong, Im all for new and good parts but you really have to know when and where to spend the money. It makes no sense to spend 1500 on big heads that will never work with your combo just because you may someday want to do more work, there is no cam on...

dsblk93 has the right idea, my gt40 combos make well over 300 rwhp and no I dont have to put new valves in or rebuild the heads or do any of that crazy stuff you guys think have to be done to make power, its called matching the parts and knowing what to do. If all you want is 12's then all you...

LOL this is my point exactly, everyone says he should buy a set of AFR heads then you can buy a new intake, cam, tb, maf, injectors, pistons, rods, crank and why not buy dart block too , cmon man, really? how about you just buy what will work with what you have , save the 3000$ and make plenty...

OK, heres the deal, a set of gt40 heads go for 200$ a set of springs go for 100$ retainers go for 35$ so if you add shipping you get a set of heads that can support 400 hp for only 400$. there is nothing that needs to be done to accomplish this, we have as well as many many others have been...

ok, im tired so ill give the quick reasons why gt40 and windsor jr's are the best choice. cheap, can support 400 hp with no problems, good combustion proccess, iron heads make more power, they match the combo he has perfectly. do they match every motor? no but they work for most street engines.

I'm gonna tell you the best 2 heads for your setup, I know you will not listen and i know everyone will think I'm crazy but what the hell lol. world Windsor Jr's and gt40's If you need to know know why I guess I can explain when i have more time.

all fox columns are compatible

go to autozone and get a tube of muffler sealer, its for exhaust work, its a white paste that turns to a hard ceramic like substance. works very well.

some seals come with an install sleeve, if not you can make one. its just a thin plastic sleeve that you slide the seal over and one end sits over the crank so it slides on nice. this can make things alot easier as it spreads the lip open so theres no worries about folding the lip or cutting it...

if im building the engine my scat kits go for around 950$ to 1500$ depending on what you need. honestly, if you want a 500 hp motor then you need to either tell your builder or find a good builder and tell him how much power you want and what your budget is. picking parts yourself while its fun...

going back to a stock pump would be going in the wrong direction, stock pumps have even less volume and the same pressure as what you have now. The only right way to do it is to get a correct carb fuel pump and a minimum of 3/8" fuel line up to the carb. I know there are people who say its fine...

any pistons + detonation = boom. hypers are not as weak as everyone thinks, they will handle plenty of boost and plenty of nitrous but you need to know how to tune the motor correctly. 6 lbs of boost on a 9:1 motor will put you around 12:1 give or take, i dont have a chart handy right now ...

are you using a bypass style reg? did you put bigger fuel lines in? fi pumps are not designed for a carb app and have very high press. and low volume which is the opposite of what carbs need. if you are using a dead head reg you will kill the pump and get pressure creep past the reg. which will...

well theres some important info lol, i was thinking you had a fairly stock setup. what did you upgrade on the fuel system and how is it set up? there are no 255lph pumps for carbed apps. so if youre trying to us a injection pump with stock pickup and stock line then youre in for a few problems.

welcom to the site rob, im sure you'll find a bunch of good guys on here. Ill get some pics of your car up once its all finished, I know everyone will love it.

I would think the shop that did the work since the problem as well as anyone else would have checked the timing but I really should know better lol. That is a good idea to check, if you feel up to the drive im in walden just outside newburgh. if you want to come up just give me a call and let...

its not the brand that matters its the type of plug. you are trying to use platinum which you shouldnt, if theyre black then theyre fouled and you either need to go up one or 2 heat ranges or you have fuel issues. the cheapest check is to use an ac delco r45ts plug gapped at .045 if you have...

dont ever use bosch platinums in a ford motor, in fact dont use platinums period. we have been having alot of problems with autolite platinums lately(took a batch of 20 plugs to come up with 5 useable ones). dont know why, but they just dont like platinums lol. try using a reg. set of AC Delco...

most but not all full lengths are slip fit to make it easier to drop in.
