which cam ??

[Dark_5.0]

How much are the GT-40 Aluminum heads?

Look into the AFR 165's or some trick flow twisted wedge heads as well.

Screw the Ford cams, go with a trick flow stage 1 cam. I have seen a few auto stangs run real good with the trick flow stage 1 cam and an auto.

The gt40 heads are about 900 bucks.

Will the stage one cam just slap right in or will i need new lifters, pushrods, etc.

Just examine the push rods and lifters and if they look good reuse them.

It would be a good idea to replace your valve springs when you install the new cam. Especially if you are thinking of getting some roller rockers. As for what size rockers...that's up to you. stock is 1.60. You can step up to a 1.70 (or 1.72) to give that new cam a little more lift. That's what I did. B-303 w/ 1.72 Scorpion roller rockers. But I rebuilt my motor a long time ago, when the selection of cams isn't what it is today. I agree with Dark_5.0 about going with the TFS Stage-1 cam. The alphabet cams are a bit dated. And for the heads you're thinking of getting...I'd seriously consider putting another $300-$400 with that $900 and get yourself some AFR 165s. Those heads are awesome right out of the box. If not the AFRs...I'd go with Edelbrock or TFS, as opposed to the GT40s.
