Brodix IK200, about the best bang for your buck. I'm in the same situation as you with kids budget and all,I got those heads on my 383 with KB pistons and from my time slips the hp with a small cam is right there where you want to be.

How bout 6 kids on a tight budget.

388 eagle assembly with 5.7 rods and KB134 flat tops
AFR 220X old heads milled to 48 cc chambers
Roller cam (drag race only) alky inj toilet
Powerglide
2950lb car 6.29 @ 108 1/8 1.29 60 ft
Zip put it together and Zip and some more on here have seen it run.

Leave on the converter (5800) and it will ride the bumper for 300+ft

Go with what you have. You can find a good set of aluminum heads for around 900 used. Then you have 600 to spend on that intake and carb. Buy a Holley Blue and have fun.

I found a set of RHS alumiun heads for sale used The guy only want $800 but i havent been able to cross reference any of the numbers on the heads. He says they have 2.02 valves but he didnt know the runner sizes. Plus I think they have had some work done to them. He says "they flow like crazy " but he can't produce any numbers or any info about them. Are RHs heads any good or will can I expect the results I'm looking for from these heads ?

Have you tried calling RHS to check the #'s ? they might be a good and they might not. The smaller runner heads don't flow much according to their own flow charts, how ever the 235 runners flow up to 315 CFM. A good running 383 will need 300 CFM or more to perform at it's best. i've heard those words before they flow like crazy, but unless you can get some actual flow #'s i'd be careful of the purchase.
