350 head choice

I've found a set of 416's for 50$. I was thinking vortec or trickflow aluminums for a 350 build.

I've heard ported 416's are another cheap alternative. Will these heads w. 1.94 intake valves support 375 horsepower / 375 lb-ft?

Ported properly, I think they could. They are among the best factory castings for a budget performance build. Vortecs would be better, but the #416 are a pretty good head too.
