I’ve had a lot of thought and discussion about this,and have finally decided to order a whole bunch of parts and go from there,and I have ordered long tube headers ceramic coating, HEI distributor,and the low rise Edelbrock intake,and their E street series Aluminum Heads,and a lot of debate on carburetor,and since I found a wire that was disconnected from the choke,have no problem with my carburetor. Still a few weeks away from starting,waiting on my heads.

Now you have a build thread.

Please post some "before" photos while you wait for parts!

This sounds like a fun upgrade. Be awesome if you could get before/after dyno pulls.
