Re: Best Heads to pick?

For what you have and your budget, your best bet is a 383. The swirl port heads, while not ideal, can be made to perform.

If the block has flat tappet cam:

balanced 383 kit:

XE256 cam and lifter kit:

if the block has roller cam provisions-

either of the 383 kits above-
plus cam

otherwise i would get a 350 new vortec crate motor from jegs. IMO its not worth it to buy used vortec heads then have them upgraded
