Whats the application? Gearing? Trans? Weight? CID ?

Will both motors have the same intakes? Carbs? Headers?

Your question is to broad and their are many tricks that can be done and still fall with in the "Rules" you have listed.

Thiers alot more to it then A vs B and power production.

460 cid + boring, 3.55 gears, c6 trans with manual valve body, 5000 lbs , same intake carb headers,
I'm really just wondering the power difference between the heads (stock ) on a mild build lower end...
is there a 10 hp difference or 50 hp difference...
Nomatter what i have to pull 16 in vacuum at 900 rpm...

In the case your describing the smaller heads would work better. They will not make as much peak HP, but would accelerate faster. The Combination of weight and light gearing will hurt you with the big CJ heads.

You'll want to do more then just a "3 angle" Valve Job, their is quite a bit you can have done and still appear stock to a casual observer. It all depends on how far you want to take it and push the rules.

You will want to get as much compression as you can and talk to some one like Brett Powell about a camshaft, it will be extremly important.

Keep in mind if you putting some real gearing and turning some RPM and using a purpous build racing torque convertor the favor will got to the CJ's.........
