efi-diy - You're 100% right - I'm attempting to make horsepower the hard way. I could probably find a used Atlas 4.2 and throw a pair of cams in it to make the same horsepower for less money. But sometimes that's not as rewarding as designing your own head/intake combo. Also, that engine wouldn't fit with the theme of my build (nostalgia). I definitely have a soft spot for these old inlines.
