If money were no object?

And you wanted to build the ultimate head/cam combo motor. And i know this is going to be touchy but still be able to drive it everyday. Here's the monkey wrench so to speak the bottem end must remain
TOTALLY UNTOUCHED!!!

WHAT HEADS AND CAM WOULD YOU BUY AND WHAT SPEC'S?

edit: Ported L92 MAST Motorsports heads and ported L76 intake with a 90mm whatever TB. Then change the cam, thats not bottom end.

Should be near 500 RWHP.

See the thing is i dont want to just through a expensive set of heads and a big cam in my car. I want them to match and preform together. I was leaning towards a set of AFR 205's and a ms4, along with a ported fast 92/92? I was wondering if mabey a well known shop could chime in on this. I am going to be ordering H/C/I within the next few weeks and i would like to spend my money with a site sponsor.

Why don't you let Texas Speed spec it for you? They only have the fastest heads/cam with stock bottom in the country.

If money is no object, then Pat G's setup w/ a HARROP intake. From what i've researched, these intakes are supposed to be the best but cost over $3000

"If money were no object", then why stick with a stock bottom end, and complain about a $3000 intake?

And an "ultimate head/cam combo motor" would not have AFR 205s, an MS4 cam, or a FAST 92 intake like you suggested.
