Build me a 800hp NA 512 b block using pump gas

My sentimental favorite is the Edelbrock Victor, BUT, I won't use them on my builds anymore unless the customer requires it, they just have too many problems and are too much trouble.

So that doesn't leave us with much. Therefor, simultaneously in order of cost and power potential, lowest to highest.....a really good set of Indy EZ, the ported Indy 440-1 or as mentioned earlier, the B-1 original.

The Indy EZ? Yes. A short while back we did a horsepower test on a 10.3:1 440 with EZ heads and an old Racer Brown roller from 1968. It made 658 HP.


I had no idea the Edelbrock Victor heads had problems and are too much trouble. Now I know. Guess I had better start looking for a set of Indy 440-1 heads. I had heard (maybe hearsay) that some of Indy heads were poor quality and Indy themselves wouldn't warrantee them. That's why I shied away from them but then again that could be just BS from a disgruntled customer maybe. I read that if they come from a Indy dealer there's less hassle if there should be a problem. I don't know if any of that is true but if you are recommending them they must be fine. You are the professional at this. Definitely not me. I do very much appreciate your input on my project.
Thank you again
