228/232 .610/.610 113 cam or similar custom spec'd grind (check PTV first)
AFR 210cc heads
PAC .650 lift springs for less weight
stock rockers with trunion upgrade
hardened pushrods
LS2 timing chain
LS6 oil pump
GM MLS head gaskets, don't use cometics

Will still have great street manors with a good tune, mpg shouldn't suffer too much with the high velocity heads.
