"451 Manifesto"

I purchased Andys book a few years back. Somehow I misplaced it...

Was out in the garage working on the mower few days back, spent some time thinking...

What if....one were to build a 451/470. Set of gently massaged aluminum heads, not MW ports with a full CNC program on them. Just simple port matching, blend the bowls and some cc work done on them. Good valvetrain, hydraulic roller, one based more towards somewhat civil street manners, more bottom/mid range than top end. Perhaps use some of the different piston/bearing coatings. A TPI style EFI setup, one that allows full control over timing/fuel curves. Knowing that it can be tuned to add/pull timing/fuel based on load and throttle setting/vehicle velocity run the compression up a bit. Couple it with a somewhat modern electronic trans, my car is setup for a 4l80e.
More or less a "modern day" build...no real goal for hp/et...go into it with the thinking of it will run whatever et it is going to run...hell, perhaps with the thought process of just wanting a good running, drive able wedge powered street car?
Any and all thoughts/comments appreciated...
