Hey thanks mate ! I haven't been to Queensland yet. im on the other side of the country :)

Im not sure what to do with the car next, would love to get it in the low 11's. Either heads and cam, or maybe a procharger, unsure how the old motor will take it but. May do a compression test in the off season, see where its at. I wouldn't mind hearing from you guys who bracket race with Prochargers, and if you find them consistent enough ?

Check the classifieds for ETP heads. There's a fella sellin' some 215 complete
heads that flow like mad. I think he wants 1900 complete plus cometic gasket
and they only have an hour of dyno time on them. They're like 3000 new.
Those or an equivalent head with a 230/234 cam will easily drop you a full
second with reliability and streetability.

Hey thanks for the heads up mate !

One great thing about my car, is its no longer driven on the street, so i can go crazy with it. Trouble is having the budget, like all things. I would certainly need heads and cam, i was thinking along the same cam specs you suggested with a ls2 casting head.

Nicely done! +1 on that detailed slip!!

About the pro charger and being consistent, I'm no bracket racer by any means, but back when I had a 98 Z28 with a D1 strapped to it, it was kind of all over the place. It was on street tires however, so I'm sure that contributed to the inconsistency a good bit, lol.
