I was looking at strip only, no street use at all. Looks like I'll shoot for the Eagle rods (as I'm an Eagle dealer) and look into a girdle. I am planning on a carb setup. I'll build my own IR intake so that is no prob and I'm looking at either 50-55mm Lectrons or Webers (Webers are much cheaper).
On a side note, I have to say !!!HOLY MOLY!!! to the two locked down anti-Ferrea-guy posts! Maybe we should start a "theory" thread where we can argue our opinions and not waste time on the threads of the poor guys who just want to ask a silly question.
