318 MAX fuel economy builds?

Yup, I always debur my engines and parts for that reason. The 920 heads I bowl ported last year and are on my Cudas 273 were surprisingly clean ports compared to the BB heads I've ported from the 60's and 70's. I just did a light clean up in the bowl, back cut the valves and gasket matched the intake side. My car has a 904 with 2.94 gears and my carb was way too rich and it gets just over 15 mpg with the 275-60-15 rear tires on it turning about 2500 at 65 mph. It's not fast and the mileage isn't great. I think I can get this 360 to get over 20 and have some power when needed. I'm hoping anyway.
You already have them and are ported then yes makes sense to use them.
But to me starting with the best heads you can within reason makes the most sense.
It will allow hp goals to be reached with smaller cams.
