Be sure to get all the critical studs inserted and use the stock steel head studs. I am doing a similar conversion on my 2.2T. You already have squirters in your 71 case so money saved there. 2.2T heads have the smaller ports combined with the T cams are great for low end torque which is why I'm keeping them. Of course the 2.4/2.7 crank and rods, but I'm using 2.4S pistons to keep the comp ratio the same as the 2.2T at 8.5/1. Another mod I'm doing is the oil by-pass mod along with an SC 4 rib oil pump and of course an external oil cooler. I've ditched the Marelli distributor for a Bosch 008 with Pertronix and have a set of Webers. Oh, what's nice about the 2.2T heads is that they don't have the injection port drilled in 'em that would have to be filled if running carbs. Good luck with your build!
