Cylinder Head Choice

If you have five or six k to throw at the car how about just dialing up a blueprint engine and having that sent to your door??.. carburetor to oil pan distributor to water pump with a warranty...
I like 318 will runs suggestions of building from the back and working your way forward... When we were kids we would put an intake manifold Cam and headers and start breaking drivelines rear ends and transmissions and bottom ends of motors... Cuz we got older we started building them from the back forward...
If you buy that blueprint engine you'll find all the weak parts behind it LOL...
