Im going to build my motor this winter when im not driving it and heres the setup I was looking at

331 scat stroker kit
ford racing GT40 or gt 40p heads any diference between the two?
roller rockers
gt40 intake or the cobra intake witch is better?
mass air flow conversion
and the next step bigger cam not any huge cam
does this setup sound good im hoping to get about 350rwhp this sould do it shouldnt it

Alright now I have two different heads what one better the tick flow twisted wedge or the ford racing gt-40x heads 64cc camber

You can buy nice aluminum heads cheap if you know where to look.

If you are going to spend the money AFRs are usually at the top of the list.

i think i paid $1500 for my APR heads with no valves lifters etc, just a bare head

[Drick]

Are the ford racing gt40x heads any good because I was not planing on spending that for bare heads the x heads are $1,100 come complete minus the rockers but im getting Harland Sharp roller rockers for that

also can I use the stock 19lb injectors with the setup listed

[TurboLX]

i dont have much experience with the GT40 heads, but by reading around there really good heads to use and are worth a shot, and i would upgrade to 24lbers

That is a question that cannot be answered.. But I can tell you the reason for the injector upgrade is the 19lb inj will not handle the power you will have.. Do yourself a favor and get AFR, TrickFlow, Edlebrock or Holley heads.. Dont get the Ford heads they are ok but if you are starting from scratch then spen the extra $$ you wont regret it.. I would also with the setup you want to build put in 30lb injectors. They will handle what you have and leave a little room for growth if you want to add lets say nitrous..

If you dont ever plan on running a supercharger or turbo make sure you have 10.5:1 to 11.0:1 compression. That will give you real nice numbers and will run on 91 or 93 octane without a problem...

Both heads are good. The Trick Flow would flow more and allow for a bigger cam. They would also need longer than stock push rods I believe. Stay away from the 40p's. They are good heads, but they require special headers because the plug is at an angle. Unless you are going to buy headers anyways that is. Also the plug is closer to the valve which limits upsizing them. Budget,go for the 40x's, don't care about an extra couple hundred bucks, go for the Trick Flows.

what kind of power do you think this would make over 400hp

I now what im going with
the scat 331 rotating assembly
trickflow twisted wedge heads
24lb injectors
Cobra intake
Harland Sharp roller rockers
cloyes timing chain set
hooker long tube headers
and the mass air flow conversion
