I just had an "A-HA" moment. First off the block limitations. The roller blocks seem to have a 400HP limit. So i could find a Mexican block, but it wont be a roller motor. So i was thinking why not run a 351w? I can get a late model roller one that will be just as strong as a mexican one. The problem with 351Ws in mavericks are the header choice. But Manifolds work so ill be good there. Since Bryant test fitted a pair of flipped headers on a 302 and they didnt work I would have ended up using manifolds anyways. The only problem is that manifolds became restrictive after 400HP. But who needs that much so 351w it is.
