Default Lil Help

Im new to this site and i need a little help with my 94 Impala SS. Im having some work done now i put a comp cam in, intake port to 58 mm, 58mm throttle body, 30lb injectors, comp lifters, msd 6al, cap and coil, underdrive pulleys, and now working on the heads. I want to have the heads ported and shaved. I need to know if im headed the right direction or messing up, i also want to change rocker arms, valve springs, and push rods. What set up should i go with on that. I would appreciate any advice you guys could help me with!

well get some long tube headers and a stall, and since you have 22's i would get a 4.10 rear end. other that this with what you have its on the right track. also nitrous doesnt hurt

i went with the lt4 cam setup. comes with 1.6 springs, rocker arms and just about everything you need. its a good street setup.

id get ahold of lloyd elliot or advanced inductions.. get your hands on some 1.6 RRs, new hardened pushrods and springs thatll handle the lift youll have with that setup (generally those companies will reassemble the heads with springs and retainers, but youll need to do guideplates, rockers and pushrods). a good stage 1 setup should get you to the 400 hp mark

EDIT: id say no go with that lt4 setup.. it does have some decent hardware, but better stuff could be found, and generally cheaper. even if you did get it youd need new springs, as those can barely handle the lift the hotcam has
