Pick a price range and then pick a vendor ----->

My personal favorite? AFR 205's milled to 60cc and a custom PatG cam from Thunder Racing.

i bougth a package from patriot, stageII ls6 heads, 59cc, 226/226 cam, HS roller rockers, 1895$ hard to beat that price, after the few miles i've driven it, im very impressed,

but.. if i would be doing it all over a agen... i would buy a bigger cam,

my friend is purchasing a pavkage from texas speed, ms4 cam and 243 casting heads, that should be a killer combo..

you can get there with cam and bolt ons alone. he should be closer to 450-480 with heads. i like the new edelbrocks, great flow at lower lifts.

No question about it................ I hope. Having aftermarket H/C without full exhaust is like having an import without a coffee can fart muffler. Well, bad analogy but I think you get the point.
