Well, big block heads are not 23*...lol. But we knew what you meant. Sounds like this engine will see some rpm. You are correct, you do not need anything exotic. I assume you are talking a power peak in upwards of 7,800+ ? I would consider Canfield's 310 version with some minor work. I sell these as package deals complete as I am sure Mike does, and are not expensive, not exotic but do work! Best bang for the buck and are readily available. If you need assistance, let me know. Hope this helps.

The 310 would work really well. It might start to limit you just a tad on the top end. I have a set of AFR 345's for sale that would make awesome power as well. I would shy away from the Super Victor at 500" and 3300 lbs. Go with the Victor 454R instead. It will give more mid range power. 800+ HP should be no problem with this deal.
