clevelands arent big blocks.. which he said it was.

and they are very very heavy engines... you can make just as much if not more power with a windsor build... and usually cheaper

It takes a lot of work and money to get the heads right. A retired engine builder around here flow tested the heads one time. The flow numbers were still increasing at 14,000 rpm. If you had an engine that could turn, you could make some serious power. It would probably be better to go with a Yates head now.

Your also going to run into trouble with the motor fitting in the car because of the design of the exhaust runners.
