Cylinder Head Choice

I haven’t read all of the replies for this thread, but with your level of experience the best thing you could do would be to find a FABO member in the Philly area, buy him lunch or a 12 pack or whatever he wants to sit down with you and help you come up with a build plan.
To reach your goal of being in the 10s with what it sounds like you’re starting with, you’re looking at upgrading everything - engine, transmission, rear end and probably suspension too. I’m sure there’s someone in your area from this site that’s willing to go into more detail on your plans, and unless you want the fun(?) of building your own engine from the ground up you may consider just buying a stroker small block from a respected builder online.
