trck flow heads and Intake

Ok so I have a 460 that was rebuilt 1 year ago and has stock 22cc pistons and I am rebuilding the top end for street and strip application and I was wondering how well the trickflow heads and intake would work with my stock 22cc pistons and a qft carb 850 cfm and what cam would you recommend with this application if I am trying to reach 550 to 575 horsepaower...

Thanks

Matt

You're going to be a long way off with stock internals. 600hp is stroker territory...

Trick Flow top end is a good start though.

You will need to do some research on what camshaft will work well with those heads, because the stock camshaft is very conservative and made for engine longevity and reliability. It has a lot of room to grow, though.

Dont Rush into things Matt....Your bottom end is going to have to be pretty stout to achieve those numbers....if you want it to live another day...
