440 build for a tow rig/"muscle" truck?

a side note on alum heads,need to use commetic head gaskets and the thermal efficiency of the heads is like loosing 2 points of compression, just something to research,
440 source doesn't recommend cometic, most factory aluminum heads don't use a MLS gasket, yes some do & they may be better but not needed . Heck even trickflow says just use a felpro.
