Ok guys, I read a lot of info on Vortec heads and they sound great. I have an uncle who owns a tow company and sometimes has total losses he can part out so getting a set would not be that hard to get. I have a 1971 400 all stock,heads to match. 511 block and I think 493 heads. I want to end up with a daily driver with a little power and still some fuel economy. because I already have rpm intake for the stock heads I would like to go that way. I think with vortec I would have to buy an intake that will allow a carb. What do you guys think? my friends all say buy a crate engine and sell 400. But me and my boy want to build it together.
