Jesse if I remember right the E heads are for the A500 block and everything for them is CUSTOM manifolds and all.... if you are on a budget these are not for you at all, even if you get them cheap everything is expensive...

The big problem is the head bolt pattern. You'll either need to plug and redrill the heads or the block, I believe 6 holes need to be relocated. Or you could get a DRCE or A500 Block. If you start with Semi machined ones or raw castings you can put the head bolts where you want them, but that isn't a back yard job and can get pretty expensive.
Other issues arise for lifter offset, oil drain back and proper head gaskets.
Intake manifolds is going to be sheet metal or possibly you may be able to adapt a A460 or C460 manifold. But again your going to be on your own because their is nothing commercialy avaliable.
In all honesty a set of C460 or Profiler A205 is an easier way to get some additional power, though the E460's are quite a head they just aren't friendly to the average joe.
