Well once I finish paying off my credits card I'm actually thinking about doing the SDparts budget LS7 shortblock w/ 24 tooth reluctor wheel and use their CNC LS3 heads big cam with cable driven TB or maybe throw a magnacharger on it. I don't know. I just want a big lopey cam and it to be faster than my 85 camaro. For budget I thought of the SDparts 383 and just throw some ported 243s and stroker cam...
Bo white did my ls6 heads for me a few years ago.They are very impressive.My cam doesnt even push these heads with old xe lobes and only .570 lift and they cranked out 441 rwhp,and over 400 rwtq.Thats with bone stock 2" valves

Yea my initial plan was to send my 243s out to AI/TEA/FI to have them done, but I drive my car 5-6 days a week and didnt want it to be out of commission for 4 weeks this summer while I pulled the heads, shipped them out, got them worked on, shipped back, and then installed. Hoping to get everything installed and bolted up over the course of a weekend and then take it down the street to VA Speed to have it tuned after they install the new injectors.
