Right on, nice pics and info. I think I'm going to go with one of these stroker kits for my 429 build up:

and then probaly these heads:

Let me know what you think?
Do you think it would be better to find a set of the D0VE heads and port like shown over the Aluminum Edelbrock heads?

Thanks,

The Eddy's are a good choice. Im no expert but I bet D0VE heads would work too. My other choice would be these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/TFS-53410001/

*Edit*

D0VE heads would be more pump gas friendly......so would D3VE heads.


Got to watch your compression ratio.
