Also they are not CARB legal, so you wont pass smog. If it wasnt for Smog I would of went with the Victor Jr.
He only has to worry about CARB numbers if he is in Cali. Here in IL my car passes smog with no cats and the AIR system removed. Good news for all IL car enthusists, starting next year any car older than 1995 is exempt from emissions.

I'm moving
that box isn't the best yes it saves wt and you gain room to remove the VC...a gt40 or one from a explorer will do well as will the street trick flow or a edelbroke

That's b/c a big cam will help create a higher revving motor. You'd need to make the rest of your combo match a cam like that. You won't have much low end torque b/c the runners are so short, and you'll want a gt40 lower instead of stock. If you are adding boost, it will work well for you.
