I was wanting to purchase heads and cam for my 99 ss and was wanting a recommendation. I usually drive the car less than 100mi a week, and will only run 1/8 mile. It will have a built 4l60e with a 4200rpm stall, 1 3/4 Lt headers with true duals, lid, and about to have a 9in with 3.90 gears. I don't want to fly cut the pistons. Car is at stock weight and will never be much lighter. Only other thing I have a question about is which intake to get, a ls6 or bbk? I hear mixed reviews on the bbk but want to know if they ever dyno over 400 rwhp. The heads I were looking at were the PRC ls6 stage 1 with upgraded springs or the 5.3 stage 2.5, and for a cam I was looking at a ms3. I've done research and know about what I want, id like to hear some 1/8 mile timeslips from people who actually own a similar setup or a bbk intake. Thanks for any info. I'd like to make an order asap.

You will make more power and a better 1/8th with a better cam/head combo. We can custom grind you a killer cam for your build for less than the MS3.
I would either go with the LS6 or a ported LS2 with a 92mm tb would be the best budget combo.

I was looking at the 5.3 stg.2.5 with cam and pushrods for $1909. It just seems like a cheap combo. What head and cam would you recommend and a price with pushrods, and maybe an ls6 intake? I'm looking to order soon. You can pm if you'd like. Thanks
