Is anyone running Thumpers heads with a carb? Has anyone dyno'd a carbureted set up with Thumpers heads?

The flow numbers and stuff make the Thumper ported heads look like they would work really well with a carb.
 
I'm thinking about a combo with Thumper heads and a Stealth intake I have, but I don't want to bother him with a bunch of questions because my probable purchase is likely several months away.

I'm thinking 10:1 CR stock bore 327 stroker with a B303, the Stealth intake and Speed Demon 650 Vac secondary. I want a torque engine for a street rod, so I'm willing to sacrifice hp for torque. The B303 will give it the idle I liek and make enough hp for the project maximum weight of 2500 lbs.

I've thought that even keeping it a 302 would probably be powerful enough for what I want.

My biggest thing is I want it to be resonably powerful and pretty much bomb proof. I don't want to have to fiddle with it to get it running. I want to be able to hit the key and go have fun driving it with pump gas.
 
Look!! Here are a few...

GA was cool!!!!!!!!! first round 8.091 2ed 8.095 3rd 8.092 4th opps 8.087 well can.t win them all but you can scar the **** out of them !!!!. 60ft was 1.789 , .008 .012 .015 .001 lights oweeeee!!!!!!!!!!! so far the # went from 8.68 to 8.08 but i am only shifting at 5600, what was the rpm range of that cam, I can post
