I think those kits are a waste of money, they say they take all the time and research out of everything but thats the part i like. You could proly spend the same money on a dif setup and end up with alot more power and have the satisfaction of saying you put the time in and built your own ****. Tell us your goals and we can proly point you in a better direction.

I would spend the extra caah and go with a roller cam, also dont run anything but a performer RPM air-gap(nothing else compares). Check out the perfoemer RPM roller cam Edelbrock makes and try to pair it with a set of either RHS or Trick Flow heads. You can easily make 470-500fwhp with that setup, I ran something real similar and it kicked ***!

I will give you my personal suggestion, spend the extra money on the roller equipment. Those Holley heads are OK, but that is it.

In the magazine world it happens But I think 450 is an extremely easy goal, I made 432whp with a 350. Thats gotta be close to 500fwhp Zane, but I had 11.5:1 cr and all of the nicest stuff.
