what to do next? Zo6
I am at a critical point in life, I have a 01z with the following parts;
Futral f-13 cam
230/232, .642/.612, 112 lsa
Slp blackwing/ with air bridge
Lg longtubes, x pipe, corsa cat back
The car made 415 rw/400 tq according to speed incs dyno chart I have. (And it traps at almost 120 mph)
I would like more power, has anyone used t.e.a, or any other company to get their factory heads worked on, if so what type of power did you make after?
I was thinking about it because they offer great prices.
I really don't want to break the bank on a set of $2200 heads, and I have no intentions of spraying the car either.
I am just looking for options because its tax season and I want to spend some of it on the car.

I think finding some ported heads is definately the right route to take, but on other option is looking into a new rearend gear. May not give you rwhp #s but will make the car feel like you gained a ton. With the t56 some say a 3.90 or steeper actually makes the car easier to drive... I am actually curious myself.

I am looking into a pulley, and to get those heads worked.. and some good tires...I'm usually spinning..
But, then I would end up doing roller rockers and hardened push rods..such a slippery slope

Thanks I have found 3 in the last week ranging from less than 20,000 miles to 70,000 in the low 20's. Im ok with minor mods in order to avoid corvette tax. However there is a fine line on modded and abused. I have a hard time believing a car with cam supercharger heads full exhaust etc never took it to the strip it did burn outs like you see in many ads with those mods.
