good head cam combo well i'm now in the market for a heads and cam combo for my ta. i have no idea what brand is best or what kind to get or anything like that. i've been looking at texas speed and what they offer. i think i like the MS3 cam. which heads compliment this cam the best? would a set of LS6 heads be just as good as any because i might can get a set for kinda cheap? is PRC a good company? basically what im asking is what you guys are running and making good numbers with. i'm planning on staying N/A with no N2O and mainly driving on the street. i would like to make around 450HP or so.. thanks in advance!

Used milled AFR 205's $1900
Custom Cam $ 400
LS6 intake $ 300
Pushrods $ 110
Gaskets $ 80
Pacesetter LT's $375
ORY $125
TOTAL = $3285
Only thing left to do after that is get some tuning. Oh and you'll definitely make 450 RWHP+ especially if you want to go more aggressive on the cam.

hmm well where do i get some used AFR heads?
and tuning is a given. should i get rid of the EGR while i'm doing all this? how about new lifters?
