350 setup questions

hey everyone heres an idea of a setup for my 350. tell me how this sounds, and if i should have any trouble with it.. here it goes..
AFR alum heads
Crane Cam 450 lift 220 duration
8:5 compression forged flat top pistons
forged rods
forged crank
ford svo 24# injectors
Accel Digital Fuel Injection System
Vortech 14psi Supercharger
Crane AFPR
Mufflex (sp?) 4" exhaust system
SLP stainless steel 1 3/4 headers
LT4 1.6 roller rockers
Mosley 12bolt 3:54s
T56 transmission

anyone have any bad feelings about this setup. I think it should work perfectly. Let me know how you guys feel. Thanks

That setup sounds pretty good. You could probably go more agressive with the cam. you could probably go a little bit more on the lift with the AFR heads Keep the LSA around 14 though because you'll be supercharged.

The best thing to do is to get specs on actual part #s and compare that way. But I'm sure someone here can recommend a good cam for the AFRs

Unless you're planning on a supercharger, why such the low compression?

missed the SC part.

Hey, not sure if I told you about Thirdgen Nat'ls '03, check out the link in my sig of my site.

Dude...thats alot of money you are talking about. If you do have the time and money to build that combo, then it would be an insanely fast car provided you can get the car to hookup with all that power.

Was thinking the same thing...9 to 10 Grand or so ????

Logic dictates a different route or is this a longggg term deal?
