The 302 in my 1989 XLT 4x4 looks to be built in 1971 and has headers, Edelbrock Performer RPM intake and 600 cfm carb. It has a stock cam, cast iron heads, stock valve train with flat tappet hydraulic cam.. It runs great.....but I would like to get some more power out of it while still using the Edelbrock intake and carb. I am trending towards a set of Trick Flow aluminum heads, 1.6 roller rockers and a new cam and lifters. Looking for some advice from folks that have done similar builds please. I think adding some heads and cam are the next step.
