ill get back with u on the pms and willl the stage 2 p2v be a problem

[drkwng306]

Yeah let me know about the pms on here most days. As far as cam choice it depends on what you got and what your willing to deal with as far as drivability.

TFS heads and a stg.2 cam. Call TFS first and ask about it on a 94/95 ECU though. They are picky. If not go with the stg.1. TFS heads are the best bang for buck IMO. I've had 165's, 185's and TFS. Identical setups with no changes but from AFR 165's to twisted wedges, and the TFS KILLS them. Enough I could definately feel the difference. That was with a stg.1 cam, and RPM intake. On a stock 5.0 shortblock. AFR 185's wont work on a stock block without fly cutting.

i have a stage two tfs cam and tfs heads on my 93 and they run great with my supercharger but i have the tfs pistons that have the twisted wedge cut pistons

[mustangfury86]

with the trickflow is stage 1 the 000 or the 001 cam?

[mustangfury86]

Bottom line is that with a good head/cam combo you will spend more than $1200..a cam will run you $300 and a set of decent $900 heads are hard to comeby. I've seen a stock motor with good tune and mild supercharger run in the 12's all day long.. The swapmeets are just starting and now would be a good time to shop for a decent used mild one.. Neat little things they are..

Or Save more money and get the better stuff later if you can..Because this is what is going to happen.....You will get bitten by the speed bug when you are done with your 1200 upgrade.. not fast enough.. not fast enough.. want to go faster!!!! Don't kid yourself.. it will happen..

You will have to get a new stroker cam with your new stroker motor to benefit the valve and piston changes. And then you find you will want bigger heads.. Injectors, Throttle body, mass air system, fuel pump, better clutch/converter. flywheel/Flexplate, Gears, tires, retune that ECU, lightweight radiator and fan, Subframe supports, then you will be faster and need better safety equipment, rollbar, cage, battery cutoff, battery relocation, it just keeps on going..it's never fast enough... this hobby has cost me 4 rebuilds, each time faster.. bigger.. more power!!!! I did the last combo myself and it still cost over $5000... One cylinder in that car would send that sniffer emission test into orbit...lol..
Now it goes from street car to race only, or weekend collecter car...

Sorry about rambling on.. I love this hobby.. my Stang is for the most part is finished.. but now I am working on my girls car.. 86 Regal with a BBC.. by the time Im done it will be around 750 HP.. and it will be a street car..
