#1. Ditch the 2-barrel and get a 4-barrel carburetor,
#2. Ditch the points and get a MP electronic dizzy with a "Gold" box.
#3. Say goodbye to the cast iron manifolds and get some fenderwell headers.
#4. Gasket match the intake ports. Don't mess with the valve bowls or the bottom ramp, you could really mess it up.
#5. Zero deck the TRW pistons, and flip them to the opposite side.
#6. Chrome valve covers.
#7. Hood scoop.
#8. Biggest tire that will fit.
#9. Purple shaft cam.
#10. Double roller timing chain.
#11. Windage tray.
#12. Yellow "Super Stock" plug wires.
Glad I could help.

I have a good set of B1 originals that would go with it. LOL

But I plan to run next year with my same 570 hp iron headed, truck motor...

I would stay with the crank you already have, with 4.500" bore it will be great.

Jim since you are a serious bracket racer, good plan to stay with the 570 hp combo. I am sure it is much more consistant than big power.
I agree, the crank i have is a good match. 7.10 rods make for a 1.645 rod ratio and may help reduce bore distortion, along with the center counter wieghts.
