im not planning on a bigger cam unless i have to get new springs for some reason (if i mess something up and cant swap them over). if i have to change anything in the valve train, ill get a bigger cam. im thinking of the ls7 lifters since theyre only 100 bucks, and if a timing chain is only 50 bucks i might as well grab that too. i posted a thread in the internal section about milling them and stuff. and yes, 00's have 853 heads also.

i jsut need to figure out where im going to do my heads at...my car is in NN at my apt, and i dont know if the hobby shop on base will let me do the swap there (they didnt want us to do a clutch bc it mightve taken too long), so im not sure where im going to do it at.
