Will be using a Canfield head when I build mine. Don't know what part number, it's a 6 hole head. Will try to find model. My expert swears by them. Good luck.

ET canted valve heads and a sheet metal intake are on "Colonel's" 427. 15:1 cr and race gas, open headers....made somewhere in the neighborhood of 840 FWHP, about 715 RWHP.
Another 185 RWHP won't happen, where will it come from?????

As far as the 265's, they would be perfect for a street focused 454, that would still make killer power.
All of them would require a custom intake to really see their potential. The Wilson billet would be perfect for a max effort street motor IMO

Exactly where I was getting the 900 rwhp # from... if that head on a 400 ci motor could makethat power, with a 460 to 480 ci lsx I see no reason it couldn't do it, and probably at close to 1000 rpm less

We're all talking about daily driver LSx's. Not pure drag engines that get rebuilt every couple months.
I think 700-750 RWHP is all we're gonna see for a true daily driver. And thats gonna be EXPENSIVE AS HELL.
And that 400ci Ford is about 840 RWHP. Which would be nice if it was a daily drivable engine.

If you're looking to daily drive 700 hp, n/a isn't the way to go about that I can promise you.... I'm making about 630 at the crank now and there's noone I know that would want to drive it daily that's for sure. It's a blast to drive, but the 9 mpg would drive you broke, 700 n/a is gonna get about 6 mpg maybe.

When my 436 was new it had almost 630 crank HP. It dynoed around 488 RWHP, than later 492 RWHP, than after I gutted my cats I'm sure it was close if not at 500 RWHP. Whatever, thats all splitting hairs.
Point is: It's a PERFECT daily driver, idle's close to stock, and has been my daily driver for 9 years, the last 5 years with my 436 stroker. It did 24-27 mpg HWY and about 15-17 mpg in the city (230-260 per tank depending on how I drove it)..........as a 436 stroker.
We will be seeing NORMALLY ASPIRATED 650-700 RWHP cars soon, and in about 8-12 months they will be common place, just like everything else.
My 436 is coming out very soon, like a month, a 454ci LSX is getting built and replacing it.
IT WILL have 650 RWHP, maybe more. And it's not gonna only get 6 mpg, thats a pathetic piece of **** engine that had its place back in the 1960's. I don't know who's building your pieces of ****, but 6 mpg is Pro-Stock 6 second cars. My car WILL get very good mileage for what it is.

First off, eastside built my motor, their rep. speaks for itself. 2nd, if you are putting a motor like what you are talking about in a car with a 4ljunkie transmission, be ready to put a tranny in the car every week... no 4ljunkie is gonna take that power and survive, it's th400 or glide time, or a 4l80 at a minimum..... but I figure you already know that.. and should be planning accordignly
Having 700 rwhp thru a driveline like a motor like that should have, will get 6 maybe 8 mpg, and I question if that power level can be reached with pump gas, it's gonna take some compression to get to 700 rw on motor thru a th400/glide.
I'd like to see you get the mileage you are stating thru a th400/5000+ converter..... that's not gonna happen.
