The old AFRs suck and the new ones are at best untested so you would be the ginea pig. Even AFR fans will tell you the old small port stuff is bad.

The Edelbrock intake sucks, better off with a ported stocker.

Honestly for a modest goal like that you can get there with ported GM castings for the heads and intake.

375rwhp, 400rwtq. Not enough headflow for that big of a motor.
