i have a 64 galaxie 500, with a 460. I was just wondering where I should start the engine modifications, what people normally do as their mods, and which mods they do at the same time. like cams and intake manifold. I'm new to engines like this, I used to be an import guy. Also with the stock heads, I can buy some 2" headers, but when i switch out to new heads with the headers still fit on the new heads? I want to have around an 11 sec car, that is still able to drive on the street somewhat. Like i said im new to this engine, and i'm just looking for some pointers on where to start, and what order to do some mods. What kind of horsepower should i be shooting for to have an 11 sec car on slicks, what gears should i use, It is an automatic car. Just looking for any information or help. thanks.
