Default 408 guys...what heads/cam???

i have a set of Jantzer Motorsports ported 6.0 heads, but he never flowed them...i'm wondering if i just had some 2.02/1.60 valves installed and the chambers smoothed and the heads milled a bit would they be acceptable for a nitrous 408, or would i be better off selling them and getting something else. also, what cams/heads are you 408 guys running?

Thanks,
Matt

I am sure Jantzer could give you some information on the heads. I am going with a FMS 409ci Long Block. It comes with FMS 6.0l Stage III heads.

I am most likely going with stage 3 LS6 heads from TEA with 2.10 1.60 valves

Those heads you have will do but if your like myself and want everylast hp possible I would go with the LS6's. I am also waiting to see what AFR's new 225's will do. Cam is in sig but having a hard time with Comp making a cam with that big of lift?

Well Futral Motorsports has not disclosed that information yet. Allan is waiting on the completion of the heads and the final compression. Its not really good to pick a cam w/out flow #'s and final compression #'s.
