I was thinking gt-40 heads, trickflow track heat intake and E-cam. Or is that a bad setup?

gt-40 heads dont flow nearly as good as the trick flows and the e cam is outdated but would work good with your combo... but you would get alot more power out of my combo...

Endless possibilities. How much money do you have to spend and how much horsepower are you looking to make?

Must be a former 4 cylinder car. The rpm doesn't match the tach. Nice sounding idle though.

Two thumbs up for the TFS lineup. Easy 300+ to the tires with the stock short block.

there are plenty of good heads (afr, canfield, trickflow etc...) same with intake and cam, but it's like darrell says every single time, how much do you want to spend and how fast do you want to go

why a 331 instead of 347?

i would go the 351w stroker route, no replacement for displacement

Here are some more idle videos.

This is the stage 2 Trick Flow cam. Please disregard the messy generic spark plug wires. When plug wires are on back order you have to use what you have laying around...
Click here

This is an AFM N-71 cam. At the end of the video you can here the idle.
Click here

I had a few more but I can't find them.

i was thinking that at first,but ive seen some pretty potent 331s. less tourquey though. as for 351w, thats what im leaning too, the afr heads i want fit it,and the victor jr is a given. any suggestion on a good rotating assebly? im thinking scat 357 stroker kit. theres also the 393 kit

just wondering if there was anything else i should look at. ive been through 3 blueprints for a swap and think ive settled with the tried and true pushrod motor. these mods are just too damn expensive to build up with half the gains of a pushrod.

Call Woody for all of your stroker needs. FordStrokers.com 331-347-393-408-418-427 stroker kits and ford parts.
