Just so you know without a lid on the FBody you are leaving 25 HP on the table.

should i replace my lifters and lifter trays as well? i only have 56k miles on the clock right now and i was told by summit that my lifters were perfectly fine to keep in. trickflo doesnt add them in their top end package either, not saying that its fool proof but if they thought my lifters wouldnt be up for the task then why wouldnt it be recommended or included? I dont want to do the whole "while youre in there" because "while im in there" adds up pretty fast.

i know the stock lid is restrictive, ill take a look into that as well

oh and what does anyone think of the cam with this kit, i posted it earlier

Get a lid and exhaust first. When you get the heads, don't buy the whole tfs kit, you will do much better with another cam. But those heads are badass
