Looking for some real world information or possibly someone who has expirence. I have an 84 t bird, came with a 3.8 but it was locked up. I swapped to a 87 5.0 out of an Ltd crown Vic. I went thru the engine bearings gaskets etc everything. Built it for the wife so I wasn’t planning anything crazy. Now I feel like it needs a tad more. Cars a c5 auto car 3.73 rear gears, 600 cfm Holley and weiand dual plane intake. My question is how limited am I with these pistons and heads. Heads are e5s and pistons are stock cast flat tops. I have several 5.0s laying around and could just swap to a HO motor. But this one is flawless and sealed up tight. What’s my options for heads and cam before I run into piston clearness issues. Thanks in advance
