I will be purchasing a rebuilt 351 block with kieth black pistions. I will be using edel heads 6037's and the rest of my suporting cart of parts on my 302 as of right now. <br /><br />1st. what additional parts am i going to need? <br />The kit already has the swap pan. <br />I will also get the 351 lower trick flow intake <br /><br />2nd. Should i get my heads ported while my car is taken apart? <br /><br />3rd. What kinda power changes should i see. Just a huge increase in torque right now im at 277 hp and 301 trq. I atleast want 350 hp.
