Think of your engine as an hour glass, with the top being your intake the center being your heads and the bottom being your exhaust. You can put any kind of intake on this motor you want, you will not get full potential out of it until you put on better heads. Heads are the big restriction on a stock motor.

Same here I run a ported GT40 which I am very happy with... A friend of mine has a Professional Products EFI Intake and he swears by it, The cost is about $300.00 and it is suppose to outflow all other intakes on the market including the GT40 and Elderbrock RPM II

My Mustang Mods are Coast High Performance 347 short block, new b-303 FRRP cam, Ported GT 40 intake and GT 40 aluminum heads, 1.7 rockers, 77mm Mass Air, 70 mm Throttle body, 50 pound injectors, a new 9 PSI ATI Pro charger with intercooler, Mac Shorty Headers, Flowmasters, Art Carr Street/Strip AOD transmission, 3:73 gears...18inch Cobra R Rims and Nitto Drag tires, 5 Lug conversion and 4 wheel disk brakes. AND NOW A ZEX 125 SYSTEM!!!

Oh, and what cam should i run if i stay away from the alphabet cams??? how much lift etc...

I am running 10 sec quarter mile with GT40 heads and Intake which were Extrude honed...

I think we all know your mods by now, you post them in every statement you write about something. Also don't be afraid to quote more then once per post, it's very annoying reading multiple posts where they all could have been in the same post.

What do you mean about me posting my mods in every post, You do the same thing, just look at this post, and so does almost everyone else on this board does the same thing.

Ok everyone on the forum no more posting your mods or photo with your reply more than once... Let's get real!!

As for Multible posts I reply directly to each post differently... You can not reply to all posts the same as each is different...

There's a sig function for your mods. Guess I should have stated that.

It was just coming across as looking like you were bragging, like you were trying to relate your mods to your posts.

Look at that, I just made three direct quotes in one post! All three are very clear with my comments, without losing the meaning of the post.

I was learning alot but now this thread's getting a little over heated. Time to crack open a beer and do a little channel surfing.

If you arent confident in building a motor, or putting cam, heads, and intake numbers together then look at Edelbrock for example. They have intake & cam sets. If you do want to mix/match parts, then try to keep the RPM rang in order, ex 1500-6500RPM for cam, intake, and heads. Also keep a lower duration cam for your street rod, unless you wanna run a vacuum canister for power brakes or steering. Last but not least, just because your valve springs say for example .500'' max lift, doesnt mean thats the highest lift cam you can run. If your springs go up to .500" then I wouldnt go over .450" for the street. Unless of course you like the idea of valves hanging up...
