Thats reason number 1 to go stroker - i just made 511 hp with stock eddy heads - so 450 out of iron heads should be doable
reason #2 to go stroker - with a 3.31 stroke you;d have to spin it alot higher to get that hp - with a stroker you still get street manners, and I have 500 ft lbs of torque from 3 grand to 5600 - perfect to save wear and tear, as well as keeping the rpm's down
