Would they work yes .. are they the best far from.
Dart 355's, Brodix bb3 x's, BMF 385's, RFD Edelbrocks
All conv heads thats will work well and make the most HP/TQ
18 Degree stuff Big Dukes would be what I'd look for but your going to spend bigger money there.
Is there some reason you need to stay 540 ? Much easier to get there (1000hp) with a 572/582 Combo if you have to buy the stuff anyways why not go bigger ?
