but the flip side is he will have a basterd oddball two bolt main motor that will never be worth much. JMO.
Exactly. Those 440 block Hemi heads are around only because some people want the Hemi look without having to pay the Hemi price (not implying that OP is one of those people).
Did you ever price out a set of those heads? They were by no means cheap and once you add in the cost of making them fit a 440 block, you need a custom piston because a 440 starts as a .070 over hemi at standard bore.
It's going to be hemi money to build a 440 with those heads.
