I've had some good luck with my ported LS6's. They work great for my setup.

The L92 Heads probably won't like that MS3, go with some ported LS6's and a LS6 Intake if you go with the MS3.

These L92 Heads are really bitchy when it comes to Cams.

You'd have to flycut reliefs into your pistons for clearance with that camshaft and L92 heads. Like mentioned, it's also not my first choice for an L92 headed car. If you're set on the Magic Stick, I'd definitely consider LS6 heads!

Ported 243's. You need to do some research to put together a nice cammed L92/L76 set up. There is much debate on what "works" with those heads, I would strongly suggest you look into it before you go that route.
