I run there S2 heads with X1 cam. I love it! I have A4 and she is tuned for spray-rich and alittle timing pulled and I still pulled good numbers. As you can see I have 12-bolt and all. Car runs strong, A/C, power everything. I drive this car everyday with no problems. You just got to tune it with the X1-big cam!!!Check Sig!

I have a set of MTI 5.7 heads and used to have a 224/228 cam and the car ran consistant 11.4s at full weight. I now have the g5x2 cam and the rest of the bolt ons so im shooting for a 10.X since the car is also lighter now.

You'd be in very good company if you choose the MTI 5.3 heads. I should know I used to have a set along with the C1 cam (222/222 on 112), in my 3,520 lb Z28 and ran 120 mph trap speeds, my ET was an 11.9 on drag radials with the 7.5 rear end. My old heads/cam combo. is now on the fastest stock bottom end LS1 in the country. Mike P. at MTI has run a 9.69 @ 135 mph with a 250 shot using my old stuff.

The price isn't bad on those 5.3L MTI heads either, they are offering them for only $1795 without core charge right now. Thats cheap for a badass set of hand-ported heads with top of the line components. Then when you get them you can sell your stock LS1 heads for $200-300 and end up with a $1500 set of Stage 2 heads
