Post 1991 F-150 351W Build-Up

I am having a tough time finding anyone knowledgeable on installing a performance-rebuilt 351W into my '91 F-150. This will involve, at the very least, a computer replacement and header installation.

Can anyone recommend a performance shop that specializes in performance rebuilds? I need to talk to someone who can custom build the engine to my specs--so that it acts like a truck engine.

There's a place online that offers a 385hp 351W, but the guy can't seem to talk to me about changing cams, etc. to put the torque and power in the low end as it should be for a truck engine...

Thanks,

-Mike

Your in Houston, talk to the guys at Houston Performance, they MAY do this for you. They are definetly Mustang nuts but MAY work on the truck. If nothing else, I'm pretty sure they'll do the engine work for you and can defeintly burn a chip for your truck while its on their in-house dyno. (281) 893-6080
