If your just after nice street-ability then I'd vote for a set of survivals felony heads from Barry R.

By the way, who have you commissioned to build the engine?

Good luck
I am using Bud at MACH Development Home Page

I am going with Edelbrock heads. It is from the builder recommendations. He will be doing some work to them.

As a back story, I did reach out to builders that are on here. Shipping the old engine east for diagnoses and then repair did not sound feasible. I had some recommendations for out west builders. I talked to a few. I also talked to Hillbanks and since I am in Arizona, they highly recommended a guy named Charlie at American Legends. He is very good with Superformance Cobras. They also build hot rods and do original Shelby restorations. He hooked me up with the machinist he uses. Bud seems to be fairly well versed with the FE. I guess time will tell.
