Welcome ! This place is turning into a ford and miller haven !

As in any society there has to be a royal court and a kingdom of peasants. Without all these Ford people this kingdom would have no peasants. I welcome them all to this Kingdom.

Let me clarify a couple things. The 122 is in my V-drive. That's a Dave Riolo engine that I didn't build. I bought the boat turn key. The motor makes roughly 890 hp. I know that may disscredit me in some eyes but I'm being honest.
I would also never reccomend anything that I wouldn't or havn't ran myself.
When I was running my jet boat (which I have sold) I ran a combo similar to the one I reccomended to Legal Chemistry. The only difference wasI used a solid flat tappet cam instead of the roller. That motor made just under 600 hp with a set of 990 square port heads, 11-1 compression and an old TR-2 Edelbrock tunnel ram with 660 center squirters and an Isky Z-89 camshaft ( .636 lift 256 durration @ .50 ground on a 108) That motor ran 85 mph in my Bahner.
That same combo with 8.75 compression in my Bahner jet ran 83.7 mph all day long on pump gas.
I couldn't afford  a roller a the time, however it was known that it would most likely pick up another 30- 40 hp with the cam change alone.
The heart of any engine are the heads and camshaft topped off with the right carb(s). The bottom end is along for the ride.
That bottom end should hold up fine. Yes you will be in another RPM range however the pump will keep you safe from catostophic failure.
You will love the power, throttle response and the oohs and ahhs you get everytime you fire it up.
A set of water jacketed headers in the future wouldn't hurt either....

I have to agree with Quickjet's opinion/posts. He's actually worked with this kind of sh!t and I've only read about this sh!t.    Makes sense though. Hey Q-jet, how about a cam and intake recomendation from you?

Got it. I'll call them late tomorrow afternoon. 

Thanks Hot Rod.....
I'd run the Victor intake, 1000Hp carb, and a .670 roller with 260 durration @ 50 and  a set of  roller rockers.
The motor will make  550- 575 hp with that combo, possably more.

a 950? really with only 500hp? I'm just curious as to what the advantage would be?

I've ran a tunnel ram on 500 hp that totaled 1320 cfm. Worked great!!
It's not how much HP you make that dictates what carb to run, it's the carb that dictates how much HP you make. Yes similar power can be made with an 850, but why buy the smaller carb when the need for the larger one will come later down the line. The HP series carbs are far more adjustable than a regular Holley. Better throttle response and more mid range power.

What's the casting # on the heads?
Put a solid roller in it .680 lift with about 260 durration at 50. Instead of a carb, I'd run carbs.
I had a similar combo that made just under 600 hp with a flat tappet cam. Boat ran 83 mph!!

Cool

Big boobs give you an extra 5 MPH.

Damn.......now that's a speed secret i wasn't aware of.

shhhhhh!
