But if you just went part for part....I think they would be very close.....

The name of the game is the Avalibilty of Hi-Po aftermarket parts...

Thats why you see so mant Hotrod Chebby 350's out there...the parts are a dime a dozen...and there's plenty to choose from... JMHO..

I sure would like to see a tunnel port or better yet a cammer 526ci shelby motor.

The truth is that I went to the Stage III Keith Craft Edelbrock heads because they flowed BETTER than the tunnelport heads that I already had. I'm going from memory because I am logged in from out of town, but I believe my tunnelports flowed at 306/182 max, and the KC heads flowed at 381/259.

A cammer head may be a different issue, I don't know their numbers.
