It's not an issue of saving money, it's that I have an intake that I want to use that's only available for RB blocks. '67 440 Satellite

Pg 56 of AndyF's book says that stage VI heads do just what I'm looking for, but sorta suck in the performance/dollar area. Are there any other heads that would be able to do this? I'm not keen on spending vast amounts of money on average performing parts. '67 440 Satellite
