i would say start saying for a tranny and then a new short block because before you make crazy power you need to be able to hold it

Stangzilla · March 5th, 2008, 11:25 PM

I say forget the tranny and start with suspension. A car that can handle the power to the ground is always way better that one that cannot..

Iwannagofast · March 5th, 2008, 11:29 PM

it is easier to replace tires than everything that get tore up when the block splits

How the hell do you determine a "meduim" sized camshaft LOL. I gues my F303 cam falls between small and medium so 1/4 maybe? LOL

I think he should supersize the cam he has and get a side of fries....

just joking. everyone here has great ideas. what are your intentions with the car? is it going to be driven on the street alot, not much or drag car? how much horsepower do you want? ask anyone who has the "bug", you start one way and mid-way through it you head in a different direction. go to the local track get some ideas, talk to some people and go from there.
