All depends on what level the Eddy's have been prepped to and the cam lift used. TF claim their 240 head flows 318cfm@.550", ootb Eddy's are around 271@.550 if your lucky, also 78cc for TF's and if 84cc eddy's were used on that build it could screw up the CR if already on the limit for p/gas......my 2c's.


basically, going with the philosophy of

You can build it with parts from Summit, and stuff it in a car with a stock-ish torque converter and a 3.23 gear.


low deck 451
M1 single plane intake (swap to performer RPM if the single plane is annoying)
cam like a mopar 528 solid ie. ~240@050" - 112LSA
1-7/8 headers
can make a piston choice to have the motor be roughly 10.4:1 with either heads

go with the smaller port heads and save some money, go with the trick flow with bigger ports and better flow...for a hot street motor, that will see the strip occasionally.

gain much torque down low with the RPM heads? gain much power up top with the PP240, maybe still have as much torque down low??
