I'm running the 200cc heads and one of their custom cams. It runs pretty stout. I'll get it on a dyno someday. However, I keep finding the weak spots in my driveline/car etc. (example after moving from the old 190 full ported to the 200s and a custom cam, it was soft on the top end the factory fuel pump could not keep up. Shortly after fuel pump install I ended up with a vibration and the torque converter would not lock. (I broke something in the Midwest 2800 stall)
I was going to pop a new vig 3500 in a few weekends ago..... but the stall jacked up the stator support and sent metal through the pump so I had the tranny rebuilt.......
What I'm saying is with a good build, AI consistently produces head that reliably build big power and they stand behind their work and provide OUTSTANDING customer service to their customers. (Which is the reason I'm a repeat customer) However, while the HEADS/CAM are a big ticket item, in the long run they are the cheap part, the OH BUY the ways and supporting mods end up costing $$$$$ and if you use your power you will find the weak links in your car. So before you take the plunge come up with your budget, price the parts and then double your budget and you may be close.
Cam is a 23X/23X with .61X lift on a 110 LSA and idles well in traffic and runs like a scalded cat when punched.
Mahle powerpack forged pistons, Scat 6" rods, .032 piston to head clearance/pistons .005 in the hole and Cometic .027 gaskets, AI ported intake, balance rotating assembly using factory crank. Mez HD EWP, 58MM TB, plus the stuff in the sig with the exception of the stall which will be a vig 3500 on Tuesday.....and another important part of my combination, tuning by ED WRIGHT.

Not my car. Maybe some day I will build a stroker but not this year.
The guy that put together that car is name Mike Harris, his personal car goes 10.5 at 125 Impala with a 383 he built and AI 200cc heads, STOCK PCM.pull both wheels probably 16-18" level on launch, awesome sight. Car is lightened but not cut up and is show worthy.
Here is a video of my ugly turd from last fall.

My car is a 383 my dad and I put together. Budget build. Eagle crank, rods, speedpro forged pistons. AI 200cc, w/ custom cam, hyd. roller. Car made 446rwhp, 423rwtq through the exhaust. Best ET so far is 11.67@121 w/1.845 60'. Car weighs 3500 with me in it. I'm still running a stock 10 bolt, 3.42 gears w/17"s on MT drag radials. Check out some posts I found on a 5 min. search.

I ran Ai190cc heads with a 232ish nitrous cam and ran the times in my signature. I had a 355 with 11:1 compression. I made 390rwtq through a 6spd and right around 400rwhp through a 6spd with some issues at the track. Through a th400 and 9inch it dynoed 340s and ran 98.5mph in the 8th at around 3500lbs raceweight.
