Stay on a 112 or 114 Lsa and you'll be fine. I like the heads but any particular reason on that CI. With that cam duration and runner volume on a 540 I'd think you'll make peak hp close to 5,300 or so depending in induction. Lot of 540 builds out there with 310-320 runners with a little more duration.
What's it going in?

Those are the heads i got it was going to be 502 but got into it and decided to rebuild it and may as well get the cubes 265 afr is small but flow very well im hoping it will work good, no the gils are stock hp500 short style and its a baja outlaw 25 thanks for the help, i also have a cam laying around thats 228int, 234ext, .600 .570 on 112 but was thinking it was too small it also has factory dart intake and carb

Personally I think you'll have a nice build. Won't be lacking torque that's for sure. I've used those heads ported on a marine build and they were awesome. Boat pulled extremely hard.
PS my vote would be first choice on cam. Heads will do well with it. Should be more builds like this. Simple and very effective. Cheers!!!
