Welcome Jacob.

You can find quite a few builds here; Strato V8, LS, OHC6 etc. You will need to realistically define what you wish to do with the car first then draw up a plan and stick with it. ...

I had an Olds 425 in my 442 and bought a used Torker for it. There is a reason they were cheap - no torque below 3,000 rpm. Utterly horrible intake unless in a drag car. I kept it a week and sold...
