I was told ARE is Agostino Racing Engines, and I have there stage 3 Heads/Cam package but the previous owner was unable to find the cam and head specs.

I don't think they had a standard cam that whent with the stage 3 heads. I got my H&C from them a LONG time ago.Mine came with a 224/228 581/588 lift. I had this way before AFR started selling there package. Your gonna have to call comp and give them the numbers scribed into the cam so they can look it up

still running there heads I can't remeber for sure but the LSA was either on a 110 or a 112. I'm pretty sure it was a 110 LSA. I made 452 rwhp threw a 12 bolt rear with 4.30 gears and a Denny's nitrous ready driveshaft with the factory head gasgets. A thinner set of gasgets and a fresh valve job has been done so it should make a little more power . I have flycut my pistons and I'm getting ready for a bigger cam. ARE didn't face the valves on my heads. They just threw in a new set of valves and put them together. You can gain a little from having the valves refaced and a new valve job.My heads were also milled 30. I'm not sure but I think the stage 3 had 2.08 valves and the stage 2 had a 2.02 valve . I could be totally wrong on the valves so maybe the port was better in the stage 3 or maybe the stage 3 had a full valve job? Your guess is as good as mine

I don't know what to say about your times. My car has gone a 11.2 @ 121 shifting a stick. That was when it made 424rwhp. I havent made a NA pass since the retune when it made 452 rwhp. I have dropped some weight since then so I'm hoping it's enough to get me in the 10's NA and if it doesnt then I already have flycut my pistons and have a bigger cam thats going in that will get me in the 10's NA and 9's with a 150 shot or bigger. Most people are shocked at the power I'm making with a set of 241 heads done by ARE
