Time for change. Top end and valve train at least. It seems a few of my LT1 brethren have decided to do some changes lately and it looks like I caught the same bug. It was a good run for the stock ported heads and the CC306 cam but I've decided to move on to some more interesting changes. Looks like I'm going to pickup a set of AFR 210 Eliminator Competition heads and get LE to make me a custom cam.
Then while the heads and cam are on order and getting installed, the intake is going to disappear at Nitrous Outlet for a little direct port action. Still haven't decided on one or two stages yet but either way I think it will be good.
If I can scrounge up some extra $$, I really want to pickup a Speed Inc. accessory relocation bracket (Those things are pimp!!) and get some normal, un-notched valve covers. I'm also planning on doing the fuel line mod to clean up the engine bay.
Also, I wanted to throw out a thanks to Lloyd. I appreciate your time on the phone and I'll be calling you back real soon to get that cam under way. Thank you sir!
I've already got a buyer for the CC306 and Comp lifters and I will also be selling the heads complete (minus rockers) and some nice Comp moly pushrods. So if you're in the market for some very nice stock ported heads, I have a set ready to go. Here's a link to the classified:

I see more tire issues in your future Kyle. Unfortunately this will push you out of the street classes for next years shootout but this combo will give the mod guys a run for the money! Why no SR cam?
sounds like a nice setup.
GL with everything and the ALT/PS kit is a must!

I'm still shooting for ES P/A. There will be a few different ways for me to use the nitrous kit including switching between the direct port and plate or both. As for SR, I am indeed doing an SR conversion as a part of all this but just didn't mention it above.
Yeah, I really want one of the ALT/PS kits.
Thanks!!
I can't wait!

Traction upgrades are in the very near future. I've been on the horn with MadMan and have a few changes to make.

It will be fun none the less.

Hey Kyle are you going to be running the LT4 intake with the direct port setup?
I am going to do the same exact thing and have Nitro Dave do me a direct port setup also. Right now I am also just saving up some coin. I have spoken to Chris before to get an idea of how much I am gonna spend.
Are you staying with your 6 speed? I hope so **** a auto.
Our cars are gonna be identical after all said and done.
I am runnin 230cc Trickflows with a 247/258 .604 108 LSA cam I suspect your custom grind should be as big or bigger for the big direct port hit.

Yeah, I just have an LT1 intake but I'll be using it for the direct port. I'm planning on staying with the 6-speed as long as I can. It's a ton more fun to drive that way.
Our cams will be pretty close except I should have a tad more lift and higher LSA for the nitrous.
Your idle vid sounds pretty sick!

I wish I would have just ported my stock LT1 intake instead of spent the money on my Edelbrock LT4 .
Truthfully I am not impressed with this motor in lower rpm band but after 4500 rpms
But nitrous will fix that
