The 290 heads are a good choice for a street performance BB build..... My next build is in progress with a set of these heads.... wilma [/ QUOTE ] Tom, I'm waiting for you to make that move. I want to see how that project turns out. BTW, are you going to use the '163 rectangular port intake with the oval port heads as we discussed here a few months ago? I gotta say that I'm a little more than curious myself at this combination. ![]() Steve

Steve, all the stuff is at the machine shop now....going to use a 69 396/350hp Nova block, steel crank, new rods, 11 to 1 compression...the 290's will get the bigger valves, some chamber and port work for better performance...looking at a couple different solid cams...leaning towards something a little tighter than the stock L78 cam with a little more lift....we will try 2 or 3 different intake manifolds, including the 163 and see the results on the dyno. Kind of an old school build with some upgrades....looking to make a some strong power...stay tuned.

Also, who will be doing the work on these oval port heads? I may want to use them as well - especially if your build runs strong ![]() Steve

Steve, If you need a head man or a motor man I got the guy. The price will be right also!
