well guys i found out why it spit a lash cap (rrrrrr) that f#cking comp cams specd me the wrong valve springs for my cam, hence the valve float and the lash cap coming off. so i said f-it and orderd a set of tfs aluminum heads

. this ford should run a lot better know

with the flow #s and my combo out of the box i should be getting about 650hp. now i'm worried that the A-cut impeller i'm putting in tomarrow isnt going to be big enough any thoughts.

I'm thinkin the A impellor will benifit you in the long straights versus the quarter mile runs . I hope anywayus.

You really need one of those Billet quad A impellers. Those strieght aways are about 3miles long.
