- GRANATELLI 255 FUEL PUMP
...- 85mm POLISHED INTAKE FROM Professional Products

Looking for some good heads that wont break the bank.... I also have a LQ9 shortblock that i am thinking about bolting all this on. What would be some good inexpensive heads to compliment my set up and should I go ahead and use the LQ9 or just bolt a good set of heads on my LS1? this is my DD with 6speed and 3.42 gears and TDP stage 2 clutch kit.

Well IMO an LS1 intake is not junk but ls6 etc... is better. LQ9 + 243's or LS3/L92 heads/intake would be even better.... You would need another cam to optimize a L92 setup though..
