OK. I'm getting a little $$$ coming my way. YEEEHAAA!! Now i'm going
to be able to build my 401 for my Gremmie!! So..the question.
is .....Which heads will be the best for my 401 going into my 72
Gremlin?  I've looked a little into the Indy SR 401 kit. What all can
anyone suggest? ANY good/bad results? Are the Edelbrocks any good?
Indy appears to have larger ports/valves...etc. What about cost versus
power compared to completly re building/porting/new valves/guides..etc
a stock set of 2993 castings? I'm building my 401 with Speed Pro
L2380F .040 pistons.Camshaft....well....not exactly sure as of yet. I
have a Crane Commander 540---something intake...563 exhaust,another
smaller cam (around 520 lift)also ...any suggestions?  It's going to
be an AUTO trans car.Most likely a 2500 TCI convertor. Rear Gear will
be either a 3.55 or a 3.91.I have an new Edelbrock air-gap
intake,Hooker Super Comp headers. Would a 750 Edelbrock carb be good? 
I REALLY don't espically want a Holley for a driver/weekend racer.
Thats from long ago Holley issues!! Suggestions/advice....???
Thankyou!!!!!!  Joe
Joe,the Edelbrocks sound like your ticket as the indy set up would be for more of a radical engine set up assuming the SR 401 kit is the ones with the true AMC style heads not the ones that only take a Mopar rocker set up.
