Default Your thoughts on a couple of combos

Here is what I got

LQ9 short block
built 4l65e
4k Edge stall
3.73 gears
Nitro Dave's plate kit 100-150 shot (78mm or 90mm depending on what intake)

Thinking about one of these combos from TSP

1) Stage 2.5 5.3 heads with a tsunami cam

2) Stage 2.5 LS6 heads with the Tsunami or Ms4 cam

3) Stage 2.5 L92 heads with the 231/236 cam

Ill be using 1 7/8" headers with either a stock ls3 intake or a Ls6 intake depending on the heads I go with.

What do you think would be the best combo to go with. The car isnt a daily driver and will see the track quite often. Ive got a really good tuner in my area so tunability isnt a problem. Im looking to get the most power out of my setup.

think about fly cutting the pistons for valve clearence.I like the L92 heads,but I think you want a wider split on the cam for that head.

I would do the l92 heads. Even in unported form they are great and something I would consider for those would be the lightweight valves that go with them.

Flycutting with the l92's is a def option. Ive got a scrap head to do it.

L92's are a no brainer IMO. Then get somebody like Geoff or Patrick to spec you a cam...
