sounds like a winston cup engine! lol. Your heads are a bit big, i would go 190 200cc intake port, you'll make more power, that 230cc port is big enough to feed a 454 mouse! what erik said, go with 750-850cfm carb with mechancal secondaries.why a tunnelram? why not a victor jr? your bottom end (block,crank,rods,) seems all good. the cam seems also a little big for street/strip duty.i would use 250-260 duration cam.this combo seems like a allout drag strip brawler,i would think about your combo a bit more before ordering these parts.this motor may not apreciate town driving, ask yourself how much town driving are your planning on doing. is there a specific horsepower mark your trying to acheive? or a quartermile time? tell us more about the car like gears, tranny,tire size, ever thought of building big cube small block like a 406-422-427-434-454, your combo will be just as exspensive and may not be as street worthy as a big cube mouse, i know your can build 550hp 500tq 406 for the same price of this engine, and have 10.5 with pump gas, just something to think about
