Instead of guessing on numbers, just get it all done and report back to us with the numbers lol

First of all, you spelled aluminum wrong in your sig. Secondly, who the hell makes aluminum valves and would use them in our cars?!! Thirdly, you gotta pay to play. Mod motors are the most expensive **** to build. If you wanted to a high hp all motor engine, you should have went with an LSx based engine (LS1, LS2, LQ4 etc...) You would have so much more cubes to **** around with. Hell, there are cam/boltons LS motors making close to 450rwhp. And A LOT cheaper to build than a mod motor.
Mod motors LOVE boost, but if BIG N/A POWER is what you're looking for in a mod motor, you are fighting for a lost cause, lol.

+1 on the above, but while older 302s are much cheaper to build, they also have their own problems to contend with, so it's kind of a trade off if you ask me.
