I'm interested in doing heads/cam/rocker arms on my '99 5.0L Mountaineer and have a few questions:
1. Can I just use something like AFR alum or Edelbrock's alum heads?
2. Will these heads require special headers to be fabricated to fit in my truck or will the Motorsport Explorer headers fit?
3. Should I (can I) have the intake manifold ported to better accomodate the airflow of the heads?
4. What cam would be good? E303?
5. Will this setup require bigger injectors?
6. Does this sound like a good setup overall if my goal is to maintain good low end torque while creating an engine that breathes a little more freely on the upper end?
7. Anybody have any idea what kind of power gains I would see?
Thanks.
