    For sure!

    Yeah I'll probably upgrade to coilovers while I'm at it, put subframe connectors in, nice sway bars etc. I'll figure it out more after I have the car running lol.

    So, do you all know what kinda heads are out there for the 351w? I'm only looking to get the car running with around 300-350 HP, I'll worry about bigger numbers later.

    Alright cool..so I have been thinking, and I'm wondering if maybe I should just go 5.0. I don't want to get myself killed or something lol, and I think it'd be on the road faster. One problem I had was finding a tranny to handle the torque of a 351, which already has more torque than a t5 can handle before its even modded.

    Go 351. More potential when the speed bug hits you.

    ...yeahhhh, I think you're right lol. Might as well do it right the first time, because I know I'd be going to a 351 later anyways.

    c6 would handle a 351 no biggy, start pushing over 425-450hp an itd be safe to just build it a little.
