That's probably what is going to happen Russ. Drop down to a 509 cam with the 10.5 pistons and just run the stock heads.

Well Tracy ... with all those ponies you'd probably be twistin' the throttle most of the time anyway. Don't forget about the "tension screw" on the throttle ( it does help ) and/or you could get a Vista Cruise set up. There are cheaper models.

You could maybe do some porting on those stock heads to flow a little more?

The Dave Mackie heads I have are awesomely ported, polished, and flowed. I can get my money back for them, but he's trying to work on another solution. I'll check back with him first of the week to see what he has come up with.
