Tweet

Ok, so i am rebuilding a 351C for my roadster pickup, want it pretty quick on a budget.....
so far the rods have been stress relieved and lightened(within 1 gram of each other), pistons all balanced too...
crank polished+ balanced.
offy inlet with 1.5" phenolic spacer + predator carb
crane mild street/strip cam n new lifters
MSd ign...
hooker headers


ok so the heads are now ready to go in for work...i was jus thinkin ports polished n CC'd
i spoke to the guy at the local cyl head shop, and he was talking, 3 angle seats n other stuff....
is this worth doing??? or is it gonna be wasted on a street car???
also, what sort of BHP n Torq is this thing gonna have???(i am using the original ford auto trans...)

the current valves are sweet, and i'm a lil dubious as to whether they should be messed with if the work sweet.

thanks in advance.
