Hey boys, This is my first post so go easy on me. How does this sound for a 390 upgrade? up top I`m thinkin a holley 770 street avenger and a edelbrock performer RPM intake. Stock heads ported and polished. An xtreme energy cam kit
k33-248-4 lift .562/.565. Hooker super comp headers. holeshot 2400 torque converter in the C6 bringing it all home to my 3:70 gears with posi.

To do what in what chassis?

You should match your performance desires and the vehicle to the engine changes.

Your desire is a truck for mud bogging then the engine changes will be much different that for a highway cruiser.

Do tell us about your car and what you want to do with it.

It`s a 1968 cougar XR7. What I want is just a good med/high performance street car. Not to worried about gas mileage.Won`t be driven every day.
