hey 88. i am so shocked! your answering your own question basically!

let me help you. get long drop headers for the truck if they make them. port match those E7's and gut the intake a little. i would touch the exhuast much, maybe remove the humps. get an R/V cam. you are DEFINETLY going to have to rebuild that auto! trust me!! get a lower stall convertor and a little bigger one. get a really good tranny cooler along with an engine oil cooler. if you done want the E7's, get the GT40 irons. use this combo and your buddy would not believe it is an F150!

oh also, since he is doing a rebuild on the motor, you may want to up the compression a little. shave the heads or different pistons.

let me know what you think.
