Let's Build a 416 with Cast Iron Heads and Manifolds

What are everyone's thoughts on this 435 kit from Hughes.

I see no issues with that....... especially at the expected power levels.

My view on the proposed build, since the OE intake won’t likely be used, is that the biggest hurdle for making power will be the exhaust manifolds.

As for the Indy LAX heads, to my knowledge they haven’t been available for several years, so even if the OP wanted some, he’d be looking for used ones.
