How much you willing to spend on heads? |
Id go with TSP 1 7/8 headers and 3 in duals instead. And id rather go with a 4000 stall. As for heads id probably look into some LS6 heads.. look into TEA... or livernois and WCCH.. |

That drive line is going to suck up some power vs a stock set up so you will need to make more power to offset the difference. The 1-3/4" header will be fine on a LS1 car with single 3" Ideally a 1-3/4"-1/7/8" step would be the way to go. If a larger short block is in the future go with the 1-7/8" Our stage 2 heads will be fine on a LS1 with that small shot of N2o. If your thinking about more N2o, larger intake or a short block build in the near future go with the stage 3 version with the aftermarket valve. You can send us your castings to port or we can sell them to you outright. The intake will be fine or the 01+ LS6 style |
