Cuz I also want to do a 383 stroker to maybe hit 500whp or get close to it.

I would say that combo with TFS 215's is an easy 450+ set up. I've yet to see any disappointing numbers from trick flow heads..

I believe MCP charges around 850 for fully ported 243 heads and 400 for valve job and mill to set the cc

So since the heads are the perfect ones I need for my build.
