Well since the premis of the question seems to be the valve layout I think that answer is rather obvious.... "I am not ashamed to confess I am ignorant of what I do not know."

I must admit though....I'm sorry to say, it would be a lot easier with a GM deal. They have stuff on one carb that makes 1200. I'm just not enamored with the location of the distributor, but getting closer to the reality of the higher HP situation with Mother Mopar being pretty bleak. That is unless you have the money for Pro Stock or Comp.
