Any plus you may gain from using the small chamber 289 cylinder heads (Higher COmpression) is offset by the Port and Combustion chamber design. Even ported and polished they dont flow all that well.
Unless your a wizard at Porting and intake and exhaust velocities and pressures.
You'd be alot better off using GT-40 heads come on crate engines and Explorers and other such.
