Default TRex Cam and AFR 205's?

Looking for an over the winter project for the Z06 and another 50+ rwhp's.

Thought about the AFR205 heads, but not sure whether they will mate well (performance wise) with the TRex cam. I know there will be p-v issues and the pistons will need to be flycut as well.

The other option is a direct port nitrous setup for 150-200 hp.

I'd rather go the heads route now and the nitrous later.

Anyone out there get good results with heads and the TRex??

Other thoughts on adders to get to 500+rwhp ?? (see sig for current mods and rwhp)

Thanks!

Steve

I think that the AFR's will like the T-rex. If you are wanting 500+RWHP maybe the 225's will get you there if the 205's can't? Anyone else know?
If you aren't happy in the end you can always give me your Z.

That in combination with a 150-200 shot should be
I would bet that you will have to fly cut.

You'll most definitely have flycut, or just get forged custom internals for the spray and new releifed pistons for clearance. $$$ Though bro.

That is why i am building my tranny, suspension and rear before I get crazy forged internals. Its actually alot cheaper to just buy a forged low compression 408. Ill probably run the gass if I need any more power out of this stock ls1 bottom end.
