What's the goal of the car? Drag race? Street machine? Highway pulls ? Or just drive it around town?

Your goal should be fairly easy to obtain with that combo. I am making slightly over a 1000 with E85 and F1R and prior to that I made 880 with F1A.

You didnt mention it but you are going to need better axles and driveshaft. I would do DSS components there.

Use the 1300HP procharger race intercooler and RED race blowoff valve. I assume you are running an Auto? I would also use LS9 head gaskets as they will hold boost better. Somewhere around 18 pounds of boost should get you there.

On a side note if you ever wanted to run an F1X procharger later that would work with your combo because you have electric power steering. On NON-electric power steering cars, you have to modify the power steering fluid tank to make it smaller so it can clear the larger volute on the F1X.

The FAST intake is not really beneficial except on larger CI combos. Be wary of running non-stock throttle bodies as they can flutter at high boost levels and make the car go into limp mode. Since you are running 4 bolt heads, 25PSI is about the MAX you can run with those before potentially lifting the heads. You wont have to worry about that now however. 6 bolt heads will allow you another 8-10PSI margin if everything else is right. LSX or ERL would be my block of choice in extreme HP applications (1200RWHP up).

Also not mentioned the fast intake has a tendency to separate under boost. Not saying it will, just wanted you to know that it has happened so consider the possibility you might need to switch to a mid ram Holley or back to stock.

What fuel you running? I was told you shouldn't run e85 with the t1262 fuel pumps.

Thanks for the input, I have been thinking about the driveshaft and axels but the intent of the car is mainly just to be an insane street machine. My thoughts were as long as I don't run slicks or drag radials I shouldn't tear the axels up too bad.

I actually do have the rave intercooler so all good there, I only ended up with the fast intake because I got a great deal on the intake and fuel rail combo.

I did upgrade to the 1/2" head studs just to help handle the boost, I want this motor to last so I only plan to crank up the boost enough to get to my 850 goal.

The current plan is to run 93 with meth

Street machine/Sunday cruiser

Well I will tell ya that at the 1000 rwhp I did run stock axles and driveshaft but I mostly roll race. After Runway Rivalry II , I replaced the stock driveshaft and upon inspection I found I pretty much had trashed it but the car was dead hooking on 17 in 325 M&H Racemaster tires.

I DID break the driver side axle the very first time I went from a dig but this also was AFTER the Runway Rivalry II race. At that time I replaced the axles with GFORCE axles but I broke the iNSIDE CV joint on the passenger side GFORCE axle. We then replaced axles with DSS axles. No issues so far.

If I did much drag racing form a dig I would have to replace the stock SS rear pumpkin but it seems to be holding pretty well for roll racing

You should be able to do it pretty easily. I made 825whp with a Ysi and then made 1026whp with the same Ysi after pulleying it down, adding meth, and a custom cam.

I would do agp intercooler it is made for Procharger we are trying a 12 rib for the street

[NOLA_1LE]

Well the motor arrived and work has started on the install!

[blake-b]

I just realized you are in KC too! I also see a Ford racing sign on the garage wall.

There is a few Kc guys now with fifth gens and built motors my motor should be here soon similar build but smaller blower I am using ecs 1500 for now going to spin it as fast as I can with out hurting it
