Default Want to upgrade again: HEADS

Ok, in the last 2 months i've spent $3245.89 for and FLP IV trans, Vig3600 converter, and other little odds and ends. Well, I have the need to buy heads now. GTP's are what i want to go with, but there so expensive. Are CNC stage II's good heads? What is a good Stage II head, that isn't $2400? Will my TR 224/564 111LSA cam still be an OK cam to stick with, or should I look into getting another one? OK, start the replys. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Just out of curiosity, how much power/what kinds of times are you putting down with just the cam (no heads). I'm thinking about going the same way as you are...getting the cam now and waiting until I have some better funding to purchase heads.

Thanks. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
