Yea all good ideas. I guess it will come down to when the car will be running. If it's not by Oct/Nov I'll let it be down for a month or two more and get the Tooleys. Thanks for all the advice.
Geoff recommends the 220s as well since they have a better valve angle but gave no recommendations for something more budget wise.

It should run well as it is lightweight and I can still make it lighter and I'll have a 4200 Circle D 2E stall and drag wheels.
Ryan, save your money and buy some good cylinder heads to put on your new motor when it's ready to be built.
I've spent around $500 for my nitrous stuff so far and hopefully that should get me in the 10's. Best budget mod I can do at this time. I'll keep abusing the stock block until it gives, and then like you, go bigger

I want to spray but my Circle D 2E converter is supposedly only good for a 100 shot...
So plans as of now are..
- Fast 102 / NW 102 TB
- FTP 98/104mm lid
- 243 Heads stock
- I need lifters, which is hard to pick since LS7s and the Morel 5315s are the devil now.
- 11/16 or larger Pushrods
- FLT Level 4 or 5 ( still undecided )
- MWC Kmember with Vikings
- Body Mounted Torque Arm
Going to keep the stock rear until next year as well as other things....I just want to get this car running again for as cheap as possible...
