I just got my heads & cam from MMS, bought them while they had their superdeals going. Had a set of stage III's and a nice fat cam built for my 382 (came with everything even tuning). I will let you know in about a week how it turned out. I saved like $1000, for buying it during the sale.

Moral of the story, talk with Mike Morgan about some of his superchager heads & cam setups.

I did a motor rebuild and you can see n my sig. I used cartek heads and secret squirl cam. The set the heads up for a blower application and I also dropped the compression with the motor.

get the 6.0 heads and have some decent sized valves put in , then make sure they port the exaust side and clean up the intake end. try to mill as little as you can from the heads to maintain a lower compression ratio.

if you're running high boost , i would go with cometic gaskets. they have them in several thicknesses( if you want to lower compression even more) and they are rusable.
