Re: stroking a 350

ya your definatly wasting money there. your major decision is gonna be aluminum vs. cast iron which means expensive vs. cheaper notice i didnt say cheap. the heads are where all your power comes from so dont skimp here. if you go with aluminum just get some assembled 200cc or less 2.02 1.60 heads that have springs to match your cam lift. if you go cast iron i would pick up a set of double hump heads or another "performance" head and have them cut for the valves you want and assembled with the hardware you want, this can cost you 500 bux or even more depending on what you decide to get done, you can also have them ported or even do it yourself but thats even more. they have some "bargain" aluminum heads out there for not much more than it will cost you to do some cast iron ones, which arent the highest performace ones out there but would probably work just fine for you. hope this helps, i have been doing a ton of research lately on heads so if you have a question ive probably read about it so just ask
