If I can swing it when all is said and done yes. I'm really curious as well what the real hp is going to be.. When I first started talking to bob m about this combo his initial thought was that we could make around 525-550 hp. There was a guy on the Chevelle web site that made 548 hp with those heads an RPM Air Gap and a holley 780 at 10:1 compression. The 750 was to small and the 850 was too big. His engine was a stroked 396 so it was within 4 cubes of mine. He was running an off the shelf cam so I would think that I should be very close to this.
