Quick question...
I have a ED XR8 sprint (funnily enough) which has things like bigger throttle body, MAF, 24lb injectors etc...
The engine has done approx 120,000 light kms (well the first 110,000 of them were) haha.
I was thinking of spending the 3k on a pair of trickflow heads and bolting them straight on along with a nice phat cam.
Is there any suggestions people may have (upgrading the throttle body, injectors etc, or even what camshaft you would reccommend). I believe i'll have to ditch the cobra manifold to start with as they get restrictive at high RPM i hear.
Before suggestions about a rebuild on the bottom end, that will come in the form of a 347 bottm end with KB pistons, moly rings etc. in a while.
Im aiming for a stroked windsor with a V1 kit - and have the stock sprint motor put away for when it's time to make the car original again. (long term project).
Just if i had the heads, might as well get some bolt on horsepower happening.
feedback very much appreciated.
