Rank and File!!  here's the chain of command on the Heads issue 
From the bottom to the top..
Cast stock heads with a port job.
Aluminum heads Eddies,Edelbrock,MP,440 Source
all above with port work.
Indy cast, with port work
Indy Aluminum with port work
then B1 with port work and the current all mighty
PREDATOR!!1 
Now the rank and file the cost just keeps going up as you upgrade for better flow.. 
Do you have a Mopar in that corvette? If so

Good news. It was always one of those "obvious" holes in the aftermarket that just never seemed to get filled. Now if someone would just do a dual plane max wedge intake with a 4500 flange!

There is one head that flows nearly the same as(or better than) B1s and it deserves to be mentioned although it is no longer made...the "Brewer". fred Brewers design was based on the AMC pro stock head and has longer/narrower ruuners and longer valves than a B1. Some of these features are in the B1-PSO(pro stock option) now sold by Best Machine.

I dont know why anyone would want something like that, Andy. It would not be legal for NSS. Sheet metal TR would get the job done better.

The C-454 was fairly popular back in the day. I think it would be even more popular these days given the number of 500+ inch street motors running around.
The Indy DP can be reworked for a 4500 flange so that is about the only option for a guy with a big street motor who wants to run a Dominator.
Seems to me it wouldn't cost much of anything for Indy to produce a 4500 verison of the DP intake. A very minor change to the casting would add the material and then it is just a super easy change to the CAD file to produce either 4150 or 4500 versions. A little bit extra inventory on hand and people have a whole new option.
well, i like the way you think, Andy..a dual dom B1 street motor?  now thats thinkin out side the box!
