Just stock ls6 heads or whats done to them?
When you say track do you mean 1/4 auto X or open road racing?

track mostly 1/8 but yes 1/4 sometime also........the heads will have upgraded springs good to .650 lift full cnc ported. Right now I'm running stock heads with a 231/237 595/598 cam and it runs well but I want more..........and I will also spraying a 150 shot also.

Trex always works well, or you could call up someone and spec a custom cam for your exact needs.

i'm looking at doing the tsp ls6 1.0 ported heads with a t-rex, but not sure how it will like a 100-150 shot. i've heard the ms3 by tsp likes spray a little better, but will sit back and see what others say.

i just picked it up 8 weeks ago and i'm loving it too. i just took it to the track for the first and last time for the year to get a base line. it weighs in at 2850 exactly with 1/4 tank and i'm gonna take at least 100lbs off of it by spring and hopefully 50 lbs or more myself (230 now) lol. i'm sure a good head/cam/90-90 pkg along with the built th350 w/brake & 8" converter going in will bring the times down from the 12.63 (3.27 gears & never raced a manual trans before....i sucked!) to bottom 10's on motor with 4.10's & 28" stickies. i've never been faster than 11.92 and never pulled a tire yet, so i'm really excited about this car! oh, i'm 32 now, so i'm waaaaaaay overdue for accomplishing this dream.
