$1200 or so a bare head, each. Then you need Springs, Rocker Arms, Valves.. All non-standard LS1 parts.

A Intake will cost right around $3200 or so, and its about $5k for the Kinsler setup (individual Horn shaped throttle bodies).

If you put this on a flat top piston it will make somewhere in the 15:1 as far as compression goes. A -17cc Piston I think we figured would make right around 11.5:1 or 12:1.. I've looked at doing this a few times lol!!

when i talked to ARE a while back, they had one that fit they said, but u may need at least a aftermarket hood of some sort...but thats the reason the intake will cost so much money...its more of a one off deal cause the demand is soo low.
