    I want to make the fastest pump gas friendly
    street machine engine I can which will probably
    end up in a AT G-body or 2G Camaro. Limited strip,
    perhaps once or twice just to see what it "does"
    and It has to drive itself everywhere it goes

    Which block, valve train, intake recommendations
    would you suggest for such a beast? I may be able
    to change the head specs as well, but I'd rather not.

    I have both 350 and a 400 cores available.

    I've read a bunch of the archives and found some great
    information, but not usually starting from the heads...

    Thanks a bunch,
    Sean
    TO MUCH HEAD FOR 80 % OF STREET ENGINES.A LARGER CUBIC INCH ENGINE WOULD BE MORE FORGIVING.THESE SMALL SPRINGS WON'T LET YOU PUT MUCH CAM TO IT.YOU WOULD HAVE TO RUN A LOT OF GEAR AND A LOT OF STALL TO MAKE THEM WORK RIGHT OTHERWISE IT WILL FEEL LIKE YOU DON'T HAVE MUCH THROTTLE SIGNAL.
