New Engine building...."also posted in Dirt stocks"

[3dinter]

We have been looking at these NEW rules for our tracks here in Texas and we need to build a new engine....based on these rules below. Current engine, 350 4 bolt bored 30 over KB 4v relief hyper pistons, 450 lift howards cam and lifters, 1.5 rockers, stock length push rods, stock cast crank, 5.7 stock press rods, stock HEI dist, stock late 60's medium rise intake no egr crap, stock 1.94/1.50 heads with screw in studs, stock 4412 holley ct w/75 jets, 1" carb adaptor phenolic non adjustable, 7 qt kevko pan with scraper and doors, milidon hi volume oil pump, mini starter, pro products 6" harmonic balancer, 168 tooth flexplate, all arp bolts except on rods and main caps, usually run pump gas 92. unknown vacuum & compression & cc of heads. Track 1/4 mile fast med bank.
What would you build and with what parts ??
Parts we already have...487x 1.94/1.50 heads that need rebuilt, was thinking of lt1 exhaust w/adaptors.
Everything will be brand new including block, budget of about $ 3,500
As we already learned if we go by the rules we will be in the back of the pack & not winning.
