I am new to the whole ford truck world. I just bought my 2nd ford and I am looking for performance upgrades for it and I can't find much. It is a 1975 f250 high boy with the 360 4 speed 205 tcase don't know about the axles yet as I had to go out of state for work. Would like to find a 390 crank and rods for it and make a 390 out of it with a nice cam, headers, intake, msd, and a carb.

Put header wrap on the headers, at the very least around the starter, and it will save you the headache of replacing starters, which is not fun with headers.
