F13/5.3's to MS3/LS6? I'm running a set of Absolute speed 5.3's that are "Supposed" to flow 314 and a f13 on a 112+4. I don't drive the car but about one time a week and I'm think about stepping up to a MS3 and a set of TEA Stage 2 LS6 heads. I already have the LS6 castings so that helps alot with cost. Heads will flow in the 320's with a killer exhaust number. I'm running the FAST 90 intake so everything is there. How much power will be made over the current setup with the MS3 and kick *** ls6 heads. Worth the swap? Thanks for the input fellas!

Yes... are you not happy with the current setup? If you haven't run it, I think you should, just to see what you have... you might not think it's worth the swap after seeing what you got at the track and on the dyno.

You know how I feel about changing combos... if you got the time and money, swap it out. You can always change it back or do something different if you don't like the results. You'll more than likely have to flycut with that combo.

The car makes good power now! It did 457 with 62lb each BFG DR's on 18's on the back. It was also 109 degrees in the shop, and the correction factor only helps so much. So the car makes good power, but I'm always looking to make more! It never stops.
