Are there any engine builders who specialise in them? All replies appreciated, I'm still torn about whether to repower or not and want to find out for sure what I'm limited to performance wise with the 302.

It's a truck it's in so I don't want big revs, what about the 12 port heads from Arias? Can I get nearly as good gains with a port and polish and some flow testing of the stock head? Do you know if anyones gone for a longer stroke crank or if one fits?
