Not seeing heads in your list or sig. That MS4 cam will be nice if you can flow enough air to take advantage of it. If you don't already have non-stock heads, take it from 'the master of doing twice', now is the time to do the heads if you can swing it. And you're gonna' need a 90/90 setup to take full advantage. Car's gonna' be a killer, for sure. Good luck and hope all goes well with your installs ... nice choice of parts, BTW.

Thanks! Fast 90/90 and ported ls6's are in the future. Money only allowed what u see in the pic. I was only gonna do the exhaust, plugs, and wires. But then I though that since I had the whole week off from work, and 2 and a half car garage to work in, and a friend who has expierence in engine building....might as well do a cam. After researching for a nice/big cam (car is driven a lot, but not DD) I cam with up with the MS4. Plans for down the road is the heads and 90/90, then 150 shot, along with proper suspension upgrade and 12 bolt. And when the engine goes, I'll probably go forged internals with a bigger nitrous shot. I'm doing everything with the end project in mind. That's why when i originally bought the exhaust supply, I did 3" knowing i'd be using a big cam with heads eventually.

Can't make it for that. Gotta work that weekend, and I'm already taking enough time off this week, and some time off in October. I might make it to the domestic gathering at don garlits on the 16th of sept though, looks like fun.

But, surgery begins today. I will have pics, open header vids, exhaust vids, driving vids, dyno vids, dyno sheet, drag times and vids, etc, etc, when it's all done!!
