are you using one or two of those 61mm?
if your only doing one and wanted to keep the price down you could do a s400, cablebandet has one of those and is running some high 9's and it only costs like $650
that turbo should support allot of power provided you have the fuel and tunning for it

I would go with AFR 225's and pick a decent single pattern 230's duration cam. A single will probably be cheaper if you're worried about costs. Also I don't know how much boost you're looking at running but the 36'lbers may be a little small. Also the 4.10's might need to be swapped to 3.73's or 3.55's to help spool.

Sounds good to me, but definetly change the cam and if you want to turn up the boost get the CR down a bit.

I will be lowering the compression with the new heads. Im trying to get it around 9-9.5 to 1 and I am definatly changing cams, The one in the car now is a nitrous cam that comp ground for me. I am not sure if i still wanna crank the motor 7400+!
