I'm back.

Ok, the heads should be 190cc to 210cc depending on cam lift and RPM limit. But a smaller intake port will work. With the forced induction intake size is realitive to boost. The exhaust port and restrictions after that are VERY important.

We need more information on the rear gear and total boost. What the final weight is going to be----give or take a few pounds.

If cost is the only factor here, then find the heads you can efford and then build every thing around that.

Are we going to go thru the short block or just use what we have as is??


Any heads we get, the ports can be cleaned up and do a little bowl work. Port match with the intake is a must. But, I don't like an exact match, I like the head ports to be a little bigger than the intake because of port pulse. The intake port being smaller helps break up the pulse wave.
