to get the full potential of a H/C setup you will need headers. I would go with the MS3 and some QTP longtubes. Stay with the stock heads for now. It should get you close to 400RWHP cam only. Oh, and get some different gears as well. Maybe 3.90's or 4.10's

Cool

long tubes were on the list Well, if I can get over 400 with out spending $1,200.00 + on heads, then im all for it. Already got the rear-end covered. 10 bolt blows up, moser 12 bolt goes in the next day.

Plenty of 400+ HP cam only setups out there. MS3 should easily make it after long tubes and tuning.

definately save that money on the heads if all you want is 400 RWHP. Maybe you can use it for a little spray as well!
