Then there are some combo that are still soft,You just need to pick the rite one and get your check book out. Or be prepared for a uphill battle, ask anyone who has been doing it for many years.

Jim's statement is right on the money!
Classes such early Chevy small and big block, Mopar small and big block and a few others, in order to be competitive, you have to pay for the technology.
These engine packages have been in competition for decades and almost every single ounce of power has been extracted throughout the years. What makes the difference is the shop that either builds the cylinder heads and intake package and/or the engine and the camshaft design.
