Rebuilding a small block 350??

What are the best part combos to get the most HP out of a small block 350?? I'm certainly in the planning stages of building a 350. I plan on having a blower, carb.(s), and nitrous. What parts are the best for my plan????

You seem to be new to this subject. I highly suggest you pick up the book 'How to Build Max Performance Chevy Small Blocks' by David Vizard. This will set you in the right direction. Mr. Vizard really knows the SBC and what works and what doesn't work. All of his books are really informative.

The first thing to do is decide how much power you want to make and where at in the rpm range. Then decide how much you want to spend on the engine and go from there...

and figure out what application you intend to apply the engine to, like drag racing ,dirt track, auto cross. might want to consider finishing school and gettign a very good paying job too so you'll have the jack to support the car and engine.
