Well to make a long story short, this wasn't a planned motor build and the funds just weren't all there to go all out on a set of heads.

So I went with the Patriot Stage 3 LS6 heads.

I do have to say, that I don't think there are two many heads out there that will match the performance of these for the price.

Car pulls so much harder than my forged H&C 347.

The street manners are very tame and easy to drive also, I would say probably more so than my old 347.

Here are a couple pics I took this morning, I was hoping I could put a couple coats of Zaino on it today but the sun was MIA.

Enjoy, I know I am!

how much was everything all in all.... im looking for a plain jane Z28 that i can keep a sleeper car with a decent size motor that can also keep up with a cobra
