You can get by with your stock motor with a set of 180cc 64cc chamber dart heads, and a 280H comp magnum cam. You can use that torker2 intake with that combo. With the flat top pistons that you have and the 64cc chamber it should be around 9.5-10 to 1 compression, which would be a good on pump gas. You should make over 400 horsepower with that setup. But don't expect it to rev to 7 or 8 grand.
