Well, I just got $1800 dropped into my lap. Its burning a hole big time.

I want to redo my motor to run around 114mph N/A.

Either a 351 or 302.

I was thinkin new pistons, high compression port my heads a little higher revving cam and a new intake.
On fordmuscle.com they have a junkyard block 5.0 with iron heads running 11.96@116mph in a 69 mustang with a stock T-5. Spinning upto 6800rpm on the shifts!!

How long could a motor like that last... what should I do? I can't find any cheap used blowers, and I know that would end up running me move $1800 with all the accessories to get it running right, and I'd rather stay N/A Ive decieded.
