Re: motor help
Sounds almost identical to mine - hp would be a number not worth mentioning 
Those 441 heads are terrible - huge chambers. The dometops help, but not enough to write home about. The only thing they get you is the necessity to run 93 octane instead of 87 octane.
But - after a 305 TBI, it's a greatly increased kick in the butt - do like myself and enjoy it for a while, and save some bucks for a better head setup to make some respectable hp numbers.

Re: motor help
Well I can run diff heads. Something with smaller chambers. But honestly what's the hp. Just a guess I don't really care cause its a budget build so I'm not expecting much. Its just something to drive for a month before I ship out to san diego for the military
