the prc stage 1's are fairly inexpensive for what they flow and you might as well do a ms3 or ms4 while your there. I made 473rwhp with a sky high idc at 117%. so they make good power. just my 2 pennies.

Stock 317's should work, but you'll lose a lot of compression, not a good idea with that cam. You would give up a lot of low-end throttle response.
AFR 205 heads have a greater valve drop, even milled to 59cc, than stock 241 heads. Louis from LG Motorsports has posted this on more than one occasion in reference to installing G5X3/4 cams with heads. If you could swing a set of those, and run some .040 gaskets, you should be able to squeak by (but still check!!!) PTV clearance. If cutting is required, it will be a great deal less than a stock casting would require, milled to the same cc's.

should i not even mess with going with a bigger gasket to clear the PTV w/317's...'
now with the 243's how much for a good port job, down the road?
