Help spec'ing out a new small block

Part number? Which one (block) do you want?
There’s a number of blocks to choose from.

Let’s skip part numbers a second here. What is it you want in the block? Big bore capability? Big bore cam tunnel? Lifter angle?
Block oiling or not? With the MP blocks, there’s 3 different deck heights. I’d go tall myself but…….

I know ZERO about any of these blocks which is why I asked for suggestions. I like the big bore 3.79 stroke option and beyond that, I don't know what route I should go. Short deck or tall deck? Which one and why? I thought I wanted 48 deg lifter angle but from what I have read, I don't think the Victor heads will work or I could be wrong. Details is what I am after. Once I have the information, I can make an educated decision.

Thanks, Bill
