FE 390 build questions
Hey guys I am new to the site and am looking for some advice. I got my first vehicle in april, (1972 f100 with a 390). This fall/winter i am going to rebuild another 390, with just a little more performance, around the 300hp mark. I have a 67 mustang 390 lined up, which makes some good power stock, but i am going to have to lower the compression on it, due to it being 10.5 to 1 and i use the truck as a daily driver. So i was thinking just a little over stock cam, an aluminum intake, so headers and maybe a little head work. Just wanted your guys opinions, since clearly you have much more experience with thee motors then i do.
Thanks,
Chuck
