These look pretty awesome. Thought maybe somebody had some more info on them as to when they may come out and maybe a base price.

LS3 heads from the factory flow incredibly well. Then add in a good port job, and they flow amazing. There is a no benefit to going to a more complicated head that adds 3 more cams, 20 feet of timing chains and a lot of weight and space on top of the motor.

Plus, what do you do for an intake manifold? Custom is going to cost big money.
