It should have great street manners. You should be able to outrun a stock vette, I don't know about crushing one. Vettes are fast! BMWs no problem. I say stay small. Maybe 2600 converter if you want one bigger than stock. I wouldn't go too big, traction issues.

Mag was on board with the head specs. They say I cuc run the Mp112 on these if I ramped up boost to 11-12psi, but above that heat becomes too big a prob. The Mp122 shud be more than enuf to handle this they say...if not, I guess we'll change 'em up!

Id go with less aggressive lobes to limit overlap if you dont have it ground already or more aggressive lob and higher angles
Already cut and delivered, but I'm gonna experiment with at least one other so just trying to decide what that'll be. R/

On a 370 the MP112 would never achieve 11-12psi without being overspun to the point that it would only make good power in short bursts and that problem would only be worse with heads and cam. I am interested in seeing if the MP122 can do it on a well built setup like that. I am assuming it can also.

Its the setup that Maggie and BlownChev seem to like....500+rwhp shud be easily achieveable - I hope
