What's your budget? Do you have cylinder heads?

That's a kick-ass engine, but BBC's cost a bit more than SBC's. Last one I built was for my '68 Vette. I spent about $5k in '88 blueprinting that engine. I would do many things different today, especially dropping the CR with open chamber aluminum heads. I think you could drop $8k in a 'heart beat'.
