I haven't read this WHOLE thread, but VortecPro, I would like to offer my comments..

Pretty-much a stock build, BUT....

About a 9.5 to 1 CR, -206 way early large oval real, "closed", chambered stock cast-iron heads plunge cut for bigger valves and of course bowl-blended along with a, "dingle berry", port clean up and a Holley Strip Dom. oval port intake with an 850 on it and 4-tube, small tube, headers

My UDHarold custom solid flat tappet lifter cam spec'd at 278/249/161, 110/106, .618" lift and needs .018" hot lash.

Sucker should cook!

As always, just trying to help and hope this will be taken under consideration.

Just a great sounding responsive engine! I expect more from the larger ports. Thanks, Charlie

Great running engine! What was the dyno correction factor?

We near-sea level dwellers (640' for me) don't appreciate how good we have it. As I type, my Casio 'Triple Sensor' watch is showing 29.40" uncorrected...

I am sure by now this engine is finished. How much power and torque did it make?

After reconsidering the stupidity of my combination, thanks to all that pointed it out, I went with a different combination. Here's the build for anyone who might be interested. BTW 650 HP street 496 drag test happens this week!
