You can do it.....1hp/ci isn't hard to do, especially with a little flirtier cam.

I'd use a Comp solid flat tappet cam, about 238-242 duration. If you go with a good quality hypereutectic or forged piston, you'll have a little more valve relief depth to work with, so you can bump the lift up a little.

A Holley 750DP would be my choice for a combo like this.

I think it would make for a fun little project.

If you would want some pricing, send me a PM. I'm a distributor for Comp, Probe, etc, etc, and I can offer you some "Club Cobra" pricing. Probe has some great factory performance series forged pistons that would work great for this application. They don't break the bank either.
