I have a bunch of links at home, I'll put them up when I get there tonight. Take it from a guy who built the snot out of one, thinking it would be cheaper than a similiar 350, its not http://www.nastyz28.com/ubb/confused.gif I'm still in therapy because of this engine! We loving call it the "Engine From Hell"...Heck, it broke the dyno when we went to test it (actually the dyno just broke, but "Mysery Jr." happened to be on it when it happened. I like to think it was just all part of the curse!).

They have a hydraulic roller cam. GM makes some HiPo parts but they are $$.

No real order to the links here, just some random stuff. The GMPP 18* aluminum race heads are sweet! Look for those on racing junk & evilbay.
