I would get a '68 400 and put repro ra manifolds, melling spc3 cam, and repro ra pans on it and go have fun. Getting functionally identical parts with different part numbers on them is kind of a waste of money and effort imo as there was nothing special about the heads or block on the ra1's compared to a regular '68 d port 400. I also wouldn't pay more for a car with them if they're not numbers matching as there's nothing different about them. The ra2 is a different ball of wax...nos matching also different. But if they're all replacement parts, I don't see much point to it.
