Im going to assume thats the 292h Magnum grind? If so, It won't run very well. At least not with extensive PROM burning, and at that, I'm not even sure that will make a difference. That is primarily a carb'd engine cam.

Get an EFI cam. You will be much happier in the long run.

Actually need to know what you want to do....

Based on the intake and huge cam you started with:

In order of lowest to highest price/flow
Trick Flows are the cheapest decent head,
Then AFR 195's
Then Brodix RR200 w/cnc chamber.
You can order these heads with w/springs to match your cam.

Cams in the range of 270-280 adv dur. and 220-230 @.050.
with 112-114 LSA.
two examples are Comp xx-305-x and xx-503-x part numbers.
The first is the older HR lobe while the 503 is an XE HR with similar dur., less overlap, and more lift. But it also needs stiffer springs to rev. and is a custom order for a 114 lsa. Like $20 more and the cam goes through a diff. QC inspection than the shelf stuff. -better-

You'll need more gear for these too.
and a different chip..
And you might want to just start with 30's to begin with.
See here for a thread w/links to similar motors.
425Hp
Intake?
