Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, a crate motor is not really an option with our registration requirements.
Here is the TrickFlow heads and matching cam that will be installed:
Trick Flow® Twisted Wedge® 170 Cylinder Heads for Small Block Ford: TFS-51400004 - trickflow.com
Trick Flow® Track Max® Hydraulic Roller Camshafts for Ford 5.0L: TFS-51402000 - trickflow.com
This combination has been used on a few engines over here with some very good results. Bear in mind, I am not trying to make a big HP engine – just a slight upgrade from stock.

The TrickFlow website quotes 61cc for the 170s.

What would you recommend for the rotating assembly?
