A built 351 w/ heads and cam can runs low to mid 11's depending on the setup. My uncles Fox with a built H/C/I 347 runs 11.4's All depends.

351 heads only get 5.0's like 10-15 hp compaired to good heads like trick flow which net like 30. My friend had a 93 procharged that was faster than a heads cam and was as fast as my bolt on z28 vert

A little tough to understand, but I read it as a 351 w/ heads and a cam. A 351 cubic inch motor w/ heads and a cam get you more than 15 hp Now a 302 is a different story. Then again, I never underestimate a foxbody.

Confusing. I also thought 351 w/ HC. After re-reading it though, it looks like 302 with 351 HC.....which IMO...is a horrible way to mod it.

Sounds like this Fox body owner is a "good ol boy" that listens to some old school windsor guys. I got a friend like this and he cant ever figure out why I'm always faster. There is no way you will lose to him. I bet his car wont run mid 13's.

If it is infact a 351 then its a stock shortblock 351 which will limit it. So it will still be slow, just heavier than if it has a 302. Now if he knows how to build a motor......watch out. Us 5.0 guys can ruin your day sometimes.

Had a buddy with a 91 fox that we swapped in a 351 with heads and cam. He couldn't hang with mine when it was just bolt ons. High 12 sec car maybe. On the street it was just a tire smoker and thats it. You shouldn't have a problem.

I used to love Pro 5.0 shifts but the MGW is in a league of its own. And pony is full of ****, don't listen to him.
