351 build up: need imput!
ok, im build a 351w for my 96 f250 4x4 with a 4.5in. lift and 35in. tires.
i bought a motor out of a 93 bronco and i'll be building that.
im thinking about this:
-ported gt40 iron heads
-1.7 roller rockers
-compression ratio of 9.5:1
-comp cam lifters, pushrods, and valve springs
-longe tube hooker headers /w dual exhaust
-k&n fipk filter
what do you guys think?? and what do you guys expect me to have for horsepower and torque?

locate a typhoon lower efi intake and get an edelbrock car upper and us a phenolic spacer to help lengthen the runners. the stock 5.8 upper will not bolt to anything but a stock lower just so you know and this intake flows like pooh haha. if you run 35's plan on a 4.56 gears front/rear otherwise this motor build will turn out like pooh because that heavy truck and size tires will suck the juice right out of her. your 96 is also mass air obd-II so once you get all of this stuff done see about getting a dyno tune , this will get the most out of your combo. just so you know 9.5 with iron heads will require premium fuel. enjoy

yes, the 93 isnt a roller motor but you dont gain much with it. and ill save money when i get my custom cam made. i only paid $250 for the whole engine and it only has 80,000 miles on it. my 96 has over 102,000
