I was impressed with the numbers, i don't really NEED as much power as possible, just thought it was an interesting stable looking curve, just sharing. Its actually going to need a stouter clutch based on its torque capacity than the one i had...Fun to brag about at cars and coffee will i use it? Not really...

The impetus was to tear the motor down and put it back together right, its burned oil from day 1. I put the ported heads on just because i got a smoking deal on a brand new pair.

Seems Ford Racing uses alot of cool guy bits but falls short on the actual build from what i was told by the builder.
