Not longer lifters, just longer pushrods. Hopefully by the end of december-end of jan. trying to make the decision on heads. Don't know if i want to try darts or just say **** it and go c5r's but then again for what the c5r's cost I could just about build 3-4 sets of darts

A couple of questions tho jason, what bore/stroke combo are you going with and where are you looking to shift (8000?). I know you're running a glide...dont know how big a verter or gear/tire combo.

They are alot more than 2500 for the bad *** heads. The plan has turned a little. it is going to be a 402 ls2 motor, so 4.0 X4.0 nice and square makes for a hard running motor. converter, tire, gear choice will be made after the motor is built and dynoed, and once the car is done so I can get a total weight, going to be matched right to the car.

Alright, another 4x4 truck motor 402! No, wait, you said LS2. My bad, MINE is the truck motor. But I have a lot less than $2500 in my 6L heads, even if you include the rocker arms. The advantage of running a power adder....

After thinking for a while about the subject of blocksI decided to go for the ls2 and i am not going to have to worry about conversion electronics b/c I am going to a carb setup. PLus it will save some weight
But thats the price of making the same numbers N/A and then throwing a power adder on top of that
I wonder If they would consider a fastest "carbed" 4 gen record?

You're right they are more than 2500.
How much work are you going to do to the dart's then? I wonder if the 6.2 liter heads would be an option when they come out this winter?
