    ok thats out. Thanks for the offer on the 540 but if it is a short block I can do my 525 short block way cheaper and maybe end up with more torge because it is a longer stroke. Thanks anyway.

    how hi will you run it ? you can build the engine to them heads 345. BUT it will make more hp but will need more rpm the heads i have some work .bowl work and chambers. the smaller port heads may work better for lower rpms with no blower your engine builder will go over this with you

    Well for one thing if I come down and see you, and like what I see you may be my machinest. If you do that, of which I thought I read where you said you did. And I wanted to run a hydraulic roller so where ever that would put me then I geuss those heads would do. I dont realy have a rpm limit its just where ever the cam puts me and my budget. I dont realy have a set limit on a budget ether but I dont want to put 10,000 into my first high horespower big block at 18 years old.

    I am serious and I understand you being so busy. All the machine shops around here are. I just never know what will happen with the money situation. But I am getting there. It may take me longer but that is because I have bills like everyone else but not alot of credit because I am 18. So on these heads. What kind of $$$ are we talking. I would love to have them but I am sure I dont have the cash. But thats why there's banks right. LOL.

    Well I looked at your gallery and there is some impresive stuff in there. Keep up the good work and I'll try to get an appointment to come check stuff out but in the mean time I want to get an exact idea on what parts I want.
