So much to respond to, I'm so confused.......

Depending on cost, I would of course prefer a brand new FE,.......YES, one thing I've desided upon is I want to stick with an FE. And again, I'd prefer a 427 or 428.

I realize it will cost more money for the Pond, BBM, block, etc, but it will be worth it and be much happier. Yes, I need to get selling the sprint car parts, and few of them are very expensive and brand new, like the Engler fuel injection intake manifold system, air filter hat, rear brake system ect, and some good condition used parts. I have a complete (410) Winters sprint car quick change, just needs cleand up. Etc.

IF,..... all brings what their worth (what racers are willing to pay ) they should help a lot in building/buying a motor. But, I won't count my chickens before I eat them. (Something like that).....

The second highest cost will be the heads, as you can rack a lot of moola into heads.

So, what do you think of Barry's own heads ?
BBM's heads, which are on sale now for $1,100 shipped (bare)
Blue Thunder
Edelbrock

This is an area where I don't know much, so I'll need guidance.
Wanting a multipurpose street pounder, lowdown RPM T/Q engine, what heads, machine mods, and quality parts do you recommend ?

I know you can spend a crap load, 3-5k in heads, but this will not be a race engine.
