Default 2.8 v6 performance questions

OK..I need to enhance my 2.8 performance. I already have aquired a set of Hooker Super Comp headers, and plan on purchasing a Offenhauser intake and a holley 390 cfm carb, and a different cam. Are high comp pistons available? and is there port work that can be done?....Dare to be different!!!!!!

#1 yes, but where? I don't know. One of my dad's employees had a really hot Capri (the Euro-model, not the fox or ther vert) in the 80s. He currently works at a Goodyear Dealer on 6th street in Downtown Topeka, Kansas.

#2, any machine shop can port any heads.

Most of the performance stuff will probably have to be imported from Germany, where the engine has been used for racing Capri's & other Ford of Germany applications.

You might try E-bay England . . .

I inadvertently bought a set of taillights there -I thought I was buying from the US. I was very unpleasantly surprised when the shipping costs were added!!
