It seems to me as though the 144 blower is going to be out of steam long before you maximize the flow of the heads. I wonder about using an AFR
head and a magnacharger or nitrous setup. I have not seen any data that supported an advantage to using AFR as opposed to an Edelbrock head.
This seems like a high rpm engine and I dont know of any test data that shows the 144 to be efficient at high rpms. It seems to me the intake charge begins to gain a significant amount of heat. good luck
