i got a 40 over 5.0 with e7 heads trick flow roller cam and headers with a dual plane intake with a 650 double pumper how much more hp will the performer heads give me

Typical gains with the Edelbrock Performer Cylinder Heads will be in the 40-50hp range.

Are these CARB legal and have any engraving or sticker for proof when smogging?

This cylinder head is 50 state legal and should include proof within the shipping box.

With the combination of these heads and a b303 cam would i need to change my stock pushrod length and my 1.6 rockers?

The Edelbrock Performer Cylinder Head will use stud mount rockers and will not accept pedestal mount rockers like those used for stock heads. Pushrod length should be checked when changing heads, most customers do not require a change in pushrod length however due to production tolerances, we have seen some who did require a different length pushrod.

What's the best spark plug to use

We would need a little more information regarding your build to possibly suggest the best spark plugs for your individual use. The best spark plug for your motor depends on what other modifications you have. There are spark plugs that are best used with forced induction motors or different pugs if you are planning on using nitrous for example. I suggest contacting us so that we can better assist you! http://www.americanmuscle.com/contact.html

Hey I've got a 1990 fox with trickflow stage two cam, trickflow intake 75mmtb 42lb injectors 255lph fuel pump, and vortech v1 super charger with aftermarket pulley. 8 to 10 psi. All this is riding on some stock heads so 4700 rpm I cut seems to Float valve or make the valve springs make out. Are these a good head and what size rocker would be recommended. 1 answer

The Edelbrock Performer Cylinder Head would be a good cylinder head for this combination with a 170CC Intake runner. I would recommend a 1.6 rockers for this setup.

Good cam to match? Just looking for a good cam that will pull up until 6000 rmp 1 answer

I would recommend the Ford Performance B303 Performance Camshaft (85-95 5.0L) for some good low-end torque, a significant increase in top-end power above 4,000 RPM, and a fair Idle.

what other mods would be good to do with this bolt on? 2 answers

Some good mods to get peak performance out of the heads would be cam, 1.6 or 1.7 roller rockers, intake & larger throttle body. Stick with the Edelbrock intake RPM II, as it has one of the best flow rates. You might consider going up on the injector size as well from the stock 19mm. You should probably need a new MAF sensor to handle the increased TB size and intake.
Along with the above mentioned mods if you still have a factory fuel pump make sure to upgrade it to at least a 110 LPH and an adjustable pressure regulator. A cobra/explorer 5.0 intake will also work excellent with these heads.

Good

Seem to be working good, but won’t really be able to tell until I get the new build tuned in. Would have given it a better rating if I didn’t have so much trouble with finding the proper gaskets. Which, by the way, American Muscle doesn’t carry!
