Aluminum heads? What intake? What are the goals of the setup?

yes the heads are aluminum, its a trickflow track heat intake and the car will be used on the street and might see the track a couple times a year, basically a street car though, but a street car thats gonna get used hard, it wont be a stranger to RPM's above 5k, but it will also be used for normal driving too

the trickfow kit alone should give me about 300rw and then im gonna do full exhaust and a dyno tune too my goal is 350rw but i will definately not mind more

becuase i dont think ill be able to get it from the kit, tune, and exhaust im looking into a little port and polish work

by the way its on a 1990 foxbody 5.0 HO
