Default Going with the monster Grand Am Cup!!

239/251 .570/.570 on a 106, but I' going to get it cut on at least a 110, since I am an A4. Coupled with the GM CNC'd LS6 heads, should be a nice combo. The heads are a great deal, under $1000, and come with the Z06 springs. Is this enough spring? Through searching, I've come to discover that these heads don't flow as well as some of the more popular stage 2s and 3s out there, but were made especially for the ASA and Cup cams, hence the extra exhaust duration.

Now, if it all comes together, I'll have my bigger injectors and 4400 stall next week. What else am I going to need to worry about? I have the hardened 7.4" pushrods. I don't give a damn about streetability. People tell me all the time that my G5X2 cam and 3500 stall is unstreetable, I'm like . Drives stock to me!!!

I'm just looking for the biggest, baddest combo around at the best price. I just want some suggestions as to what pieces I need to get this thing going together.

Just so you know, the pricing on SDPC's web site for the LS6 heads is per head, not a pair. You'll be paying just under 2K for the pair. But they are nice.

I had the same cam and head combo in my 2002 Z06 -- loved it. I did upgrade the springs to the SDPC number SD1423 at the time because I have a heavy foot in the water burnout!!
Today I would use the SD1426 duals. Sounds like to me you are on the right path.
