Look on any 400, I use to open the hoods on all of the Cordobas in the junkyards, they were almost certain to have them. Back in those days we actively searched for them, I still see a bunch at swap meets like the Mopar Nats and stuff. The good news is they are relatively inexpensive to buy.

I have ported many, many sets of 906 and 452 heads and given the choice the 452 wins hands down. This is not a slam on 906 heads, they work well, it's just that 452 are more suited for the fuel out there today.

Are yor new pistons at 0 deck height and are they flat tops? Are those 906 heads at the stock combustion chamber cc's or been milled? My build will be similar to yours with the 906 heads, but will be a 413.
