One of the stock heads and all of the pushrods. I'm thinking of going with Vortec style heads for good flow.

Thanks man, I'm excited about the build. I should have my parts back this weekend and hopefully I'll get time to build the bottom end. Then I can start looking for heads, intake, and a carb.

I hear alot of good things about those vortec's. Depending on budget edelbrock has some sweet performance packages with alluminum heads.

Yeah, I've looked into that but I can't afford it lol. From what i've heard Vortecs will be my best bang for the buck head.
