Check out skip white performance on ebay... He sells a top end kit with those heads and you get a couple choices on cams lifters and intake plus gaskets. I picked up the kit for right around 1100 shipped...
 
What's your compression ratio?

400 hp or not, you'll need the right gearing and converter to make that engine happy or it'll be a dog cruising around on the street. With a cam that size, you'll need to rev it. Can your current rotating assembly handle that?
 
9.4:1 an naw my current can't handle that I don't kno what ima use yet

Are you sure about that? Either way it seems like a pretty big ( and lazy ramped ) cam for 9.4 cr 350.
 
how did you get the compression ratio? what year and all that is the motor?

the heads flow nice but you can use a bigger cam or get smaller heads.

a 185cc runner is always nice.

if you get the compression up to 10.0ish throw in liek a .500 lift ish cam ad a 2400 - 2600 and gearing arouns the 3.23 to 4.11 range depending on the transmission. youll move
 
Is my compression good or bad
 
Is it good or bad for the setup I have can I improve in some spots
 
ive got a street stock engine 350 bored 0.030 over (355) with flat top pistons w. 4 valve reliefs, stock rods, stock cast crank, a .504 lift cam, pbm performance hydrolic race lifters, stock stamped rockers, stock heads off a 400 block that have not been decked or had any machine work so the 1.94 valves are still in it. stock cast 2 barrel intake, and we can only run a 2 barrel carb at 500cfm, 1 inch carb spacer. saginaw 3 speed and 3.73 gears in the rear. it breaks the tires loose in second gear just idling down the road on pavement with soft dirt tires. throw a little bit bigger cam in there and raise ur compression and that combo should throw u back in the seat when u stomp it (depending on ur gears) but get ur compression too high and u will have to either run race gas or set ur timing to run pump gas, then its a real mother to start when its cold. as for ur bottom end, it should be able to handle it, i turn mine 6500 rpm down the straights. just dont rev the crap out of it
