Most of those set-ups require a specific cam grind, and I doubt the current monster cam you undoubtedly have will fit the bill.

I alluded to this very point in post #8-that the planned induction change is very dependent on the engines ability to use it. Since you don't know any specs, you would need to change out parts like cam and heads to be more compatible with the chosen induction. I know the cost doesn't bother you, but you may wind-up with an undriveable lump because unlike Mark, I suspect you have low-performance parts.
Even a stock iron 460 with 450 HP would easily do what you accomplish the way you use the car.
Mark makes a good point; tearing into your engine (by a reputable builder) just to identify parts is money better spent before a comprehensive induction change-over.
