Hello, after extensive research I am in need of the advise of the masters here. I am building a 351w swap assembling the pieces currently. I am on a budget but I also beleive in doing it right. I plan on buying a F4TE salvage yrd block . I have bought a hurricane (vic jr) spyder intake now I need headers advise. I plan on stroking to 393 or 408 using afr 185 heads in a year or so but for now I just need to get rolling.

Will I be ok to buy the 1-3/4 LT's now or get shortys for now. I have a xpipe thatI hope can be modded to fit on it now, also I will be using my alum heads,1.7 rockers and e303 from my locked 302 until i stroke it. I am looking for 500-530rwhp street/strip very drivable beast when all is said and done..build options (future cam) please any and all opinions are welcome..Thanks
