    If you're looking for MAX type power from a Nailhead - I would seriously suggest an intercooled ATI Procharger or a good twin turbo setup.

    Roller rockers or mini-starter

    Look up Tom Telesco on this board.

    *That should get you started.

    TA Performance also has a stroker kit for the Nailheads, plus things like headers, bigger-high flow valves, hp oil pumps, roller rockers, custom pistons (i.e. lower compression for forced induction), Fuel Injection, upgraded hardware, etc. Extrude honing works well on these cylinder heads because they are difficult to get into with rotary tools. Forced induction will be the way to go, because of the poor air flow of the cylinder heads. You will make tons of torque, but the horsepower will never be as much as the BBC or Hemi, just because of all the restrictions in the cylinder heads. But it will get respect!
