400 budget compression HELP +++++

Sounds like a decent street combo. Like stated already, don't over cam it and it will be fun to drive.

Just one point though is that stroker 'kits' are generally not too much more than standard rotating assembly parts. If you have the crank already, then OK but if you have to buy it and it needs any work, you might want to consider that stroker after all.
Right now it boils down to the heads do I trust what I have or buy new ones if these would work I may consider the stroker I don't know how to check them or anybody that can for how much have been milled plus may be tossing away $$ to find out Believe me I know this but when do you stop not too much more or while I'm at it might as well been there done that more times than I care to think about -- thanks for all your input
