Default Ok...gotta little cash...which one?

Trying to decide between getting the QTP lt's or a new set of heads. Right now, i have the slp lt's but just lookin at the 2 side by side, the slp's look pretty restrictive. BUT on the other hand, they have made some good numbers so far. Which one should i go with first? the heads since i already have the lt's ? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

I would go with the heads since your car is already breathing pretty good with your other mods. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

I would go with the Heads, while the SLP LT's might not be the best, they are still a lot better then stock manifolds. Also you may pick up a little power by going to another LT, but you will pick up a lot more by going with heads.

You in the panhandle of florida? If so get in contact with the gcfba and they will hook you up with someone in the area who does good engine work. Head install is going to cost you around 600 plus parts.

for pricing click almost any link to the right of this page and do a little looking, the questiong you need to ask yourself is how you want the car to drive
