I got the 351. Now could I have some advice ?
 
Here goes. I bought a 70 mach one, got the motor and tranny out, a 351 connected to a C-4 transmission. Now. I'm gonna start tearing everything down, and I'm gonna go all out on this motor. I'm thinking like 500+ horses. How streetable would this kinda power be ? Now, it's not gonna be a daily driver by no means, but I still want to be able to cruise the droptop on friday and Sat. nights.

Now, on to the next question. What head intake combo should I use. I don't want to hear personal prefs, I want to know strictly what works. I know that there are a lot of you who unfortunately have tried several different combos, well, I want mine to be right the first time. It will be a carbed motor, with no blower in mind.

And finally, should I stick w/ the 3.55s that I have or should I get something taller. I know that a buddy of mine has a 347 with a paxton, and w/ 3.73s he ran out of rpms before he ran out of track. I'm open minded to everything, and I'm looking to run in the mid to high 10 sec. range, if not faster.

Thanks again for a great site and all the advice that I always get.
