MS4 with stock heads?? Can i get the MS4 and install it with stock heads?? or should i get my stock heads ported and save up for better heads?? Ive heard you can run the MS4 with stock heads as long as you upgrade the lifters, pushrods, springs. Could I and how much gain would it see??

you basically got all the stuff i do except the pulley and the Tstat and of course MS4 cam, im also adding a LS6 intake to it so would i make over 400??? and wouldnt it be smart to change the lifters anyway???

yes it would be smart to change the lifters but I was lazy and didn't want to pull the heads. plus I didn't have the cash this whole swap and tune cost me 1300 with me doing all the labor except the tune.

You are going to have to get a stall and I would sure hope that you put 400 down, but if you don't just remember that the A4 will eat some of your power on the dyno but it will be there on the street, and track.

Also remember, a lot of members have been experiencing low HP numbers from the 98 blocks with different casting heads. You might not achieve that magic 400 you're hoping for.

well im getting a performance built converter 4k stall 9.5 with lockup for christmas and a LS6 intake also so the cam will come later. i was planning on running comp R lifters, chromoly hardened pushrods, dual valve springs, and a double roller timing chain.
