What gains would I get with this setup

So I currently have a polluter v2 cam. Put down 427 hp 404 tq through a 9 in. I have all the supporting mods. My question is. What gains would I see if I got a set of ported 243s and a fast 102. I'm currently running the stock 853 heads and with tax time I want to do some more upgrades

You should see around a 50 hp gain with those heads and intake. Although gaining 150 hp for like a third of the price sounds really nice too lol

I would think if the car was full weight with stock suspension 10s would be a challenge.

If all you really want is 10's then just spray it IMO. A 100-150 shot will do far better than a heads and cam setup

A 100 shot with you mods, proper accessories, and a good tune should do really nice

Should I go wet or dry. And yea I'd do it all the right way. I don't have *** it I already talked to the guys that did my tune when I did my cam and he said 100 to retune it for the spray

I prefer wet since you don't have to mess with the injectors, but either one is fine really. 100 shot is not big at all so at this level it's not a big deal

With adding heads and intake to your setup you should see high 10's as long as you are good at driving the car.

Well everything escalated quickly lol. I bought a set of 243s. A fast 102 off a buddy that's set up with direct port. E85 injectors. Now all I need is a fuel pump. He's also including the nitrous set up. I need warm weather to get here
