stock valve train?  what kind of valve springs?  most stock valve
springs are only good to something like .470 lift...  some of the
commonly used stock replacement valve springs are only good to 
.495 lift or so..  

what is the car?  an automatic? if so what kind of converter have you
got?  what kind of rear gears do you have?  what kind of compression
are you going to build with....    

and what do you expect out of a 'smooth-driving street car'   do you expect
to take long trips on the highway,  cruise,  idle in 20 deg. weather? drive
dialy 1-2 a week?
