Next step with my car.

Ok, i had a earlier post about stroking my 305 but that ended up going way off subject. So, I'v come down to two options. Cost wise it will be almost the same with either upgrde but id like some of your guys opinions what id benefit more from with my set up. My car, 89 305, 650 dp carb, performer intake, stock tbi heads that have been milled .010 and i put hogged them to 1.94 valve. Comp cam .510/.520 lift, 232/236 duration @ .050. 3200 stall converter, 3.73's, 100 shot of NOS at the track. Stock lower end (with all new bearings)
Cars in paint shop right now but when i pull it out im going to either stroke it and run 5cc dish pistons to bump compression or throw on a set of trick flow 23 heads with rpm air gap intake. Budgets really only allowing one or the other. With what i have already done, what do you guy think would be the best bang for the buck?
Oh and btw, i AM keeping 305 =) thanks.

Re: Next step with my car.

There's literally tons of past posts about 334 strokers on this site…here's an active one now:

So I guess heads and intake…you could swap those onto something else in the future at least….

Re: Next step with my car.

would the trick flows be a big hp gain over stock?
