If you have an s-trim and only want ~450rwhp I see no reason to port your heads.

You will NEVER make 450rw N/A with TFSr's on a 347 without a LOT of $$$ in supporting parts.

I say run the 6037s & the S-trim & 450RW should not be a problem. If anything port the exhaust side a bit.

With a 2.95 pulley on the S-trim, 450-500 at the wheels should be a walk in the park. If you want to use the 3.25 pulley then the cam will have to be healthy and porting the heads would definitely make your goal achievable.

Get some better heads and make some real power. How much are you paying for the shortblock? What does it have parts wise?

how about a set of tfs high ports. get them from tea and before they send them have them port the shit out of them. then when you want more power you wont have to do it later
