    Dan,
    The D3 is a little late for this car, but thanks for looking.

    Dave Burns,
    The D17 is also too late for my car, but I thank you for looking.

    Kevin (GS4551970) hooked me up with an intake, heads, and exhaust manifolds, so it looks like I have everything I need now, except for possibly valve covers. I need to keep digging through my parts to see what I have.
    Thanks everyone.

    Rebuilt 1971 Stage 1 Heads - Date C2 & C4

    I just bought a set of rebuilt stock '71 Stage 1 heads from Gary Paine with casting dates C-2 & C-4. I don't need matching date heads, so I could part with them. Let me know if you're interested.

    Hal,
    Thanks but I found a set of C-24,C-25 heads, which are perfect for the car. I do appreciate the offer, and again thank everyone for the help with finding the pieces I needed.
