440 for my RamCharger

Very nice, I'm in the process of building a 440 for my D200 now, I have a thread in the Big Block subforum. Mine is getting Icon forged pistons and Stealth heads, calculates out to also about 9:1 but I have to check after the pistons are installed and see how far down they actually are in the bores. I also bought the same intake as you since the Edelbrocks were out of stock, looks great with the sanded letters. I'm painting my block and heads gold and I'm thinking to paint the intake matte black to go with the Ansen Cal Custom valve covers I'm planning on using.

Also leaning towards a solid flat-tappet cam, better selection of lifters right now and I've just always wanted an engine with a solid cam they sound so cool.
