It seems like you're just trying to start an argument with me at this point, which adds nothing to the discussion, especially since I had already apologized to you over the confusion.

But yes, I am aware that it's best to buy aftermarket big block heads than trying to perform a full-blown race port on factory heads.

However, for an engine that's likely not going to see more than 450hp and 500ft/lb of torque, it can be argued that just cleaning up and reusing a set of 452s would offer the best bang for the buck.
