[QUOTE="shifter, post: 600790, member: 11598"] Definitely take the 185's over the jr's. Prepped 185's are "smallish" for a bigger cube motor but the bottom line is you own GOAL. I know of a 408 with 185's and a small cam that belts out 435 rwhp/440 tq on the dyno. Yes they're small, but it's no snail either. ;) One other thing to look into would be the TFS "Fast as cast" heads. They would be happy on a stout 302, and later you could "work" them to easily support a big cube motor. I'm a huge AFR fan (as well as a Ed C. fan)...but the TFS TW heads are a FANTASTIC "Grow with you" cylinder head. Tim Flanders has gone 10.13 with a EFI 408 that wears mildly ported TW heads.
