The L92 heads are thin, according to Richard and wouldnt hold up well to the 20+psi the stroker motor will see.

GMPP is making a carb intake with rails and tb for less than 500 here soon, you still will have slight problems with valve shrouding even on a 4.03 bore with those large of valves. I dont know for sure what heads Im going with but I dont think Im going to go with the L92s unless Richard can come up with some good numbers for less than what the edelbrocks I want.
