Will the E-303 with 1.7's fit with stock pistons if I'm running E7 heads? What's the best budget iron head with this combo and a Cobra intake? Looking to get 250 whp on a budget here. Thanks in advance.

I ran a set of GT-40's shaved .030 with the E-303 and 1.7's on a stock 88 short block without any problems....

You can find Gt-40s pretty cheap. Also THUMPER ( ported E7s) heads are good power adder and they are cheap. Contact Thumper460 on this site. He does the work and sells them. He also has package deals. Can't beat his stuff if your on a budget.
