What is the budget?

How long do you want it to last?

Are turbos or nitrous allowed?

My budget is $1000 bucks but I do have the short block with flat top pistons done . So the $1000 is for the heads cam and timing chain intake and carb . No turbo or spray . What heads do you guys think are the best for the bucks ? And what camshafts do you like less then 500lift non roller . And intake / carb set up ? Thanks _ You all have great ideas

That's not much money for a topend, unless you're buying used components (and refurbishing them) or very generic pieces (like a storebrand camshaft). I say this because aluminum aftermarket heads go for more than $1000 new, you might get away with say, $750 for cast irons, but then you have the intake ($120+), carb (depending if you get a stock q-jet and make that work), and various related things.

I was thinking of using a set of Vortec heads . They are between $475 and $650 . Or a set of World S/R Torquers I can buy the bare ones and assemble them myself . I also have a set of good #186 Fuelle heads 194/150 64CC that I might pin the studs and use . If I use the Fuelle heads then I cans spend more on the camshaft and intake set up . What camshaft and intake do you have in mind ?

I would look at the Dart Iron Eagle S/S heads.
Comp. Products had them bare for $460.
Assembled where $625.
I would look at cams that are at 230@.050 on the intake side and 236 to 240 on the exhaust side more for the N20.
To run a cam this size you will need to have a 9.5 to 10 to 1 comp. ratio.
I would go 108 -110 L/S or 112-114 L/S if you want to use the spray.
