Default Looking for a good advise and CNC shop

I just bought a set of used 243 heads for my LS2 and want to send to a good shop for CNC work, new springs and upgraded rockers. I want to be at least 450+ rwhp with a cam. I was hoping for advise on a shop, valves, springs, and upgraded rockers. Can anyone help? Thanks

I would try LPE and as far as rockers go I have had good luck with Harland Sharp 1.7's if your going with an aggressive cam. Ask for Ryan I believe that's his name.
The same shop will hook you up with springs and Combustion chamber size to go with your cam.

For the headwork I would look to either Total Engine Airflow or Advanced Induction.

Thanks Matt! I have had a few PM's going back and forth with Jon on the Corvette forum. I sent him a reply at the end of last week, but have not heard anything yet. He qouted me for Stage 2 CNC work, but I am not sure about valves, springs, and rockers. My buddy just bought a 2002 Camaro with one of your motors in it, but I haven't had a chance to see it yet. Sounds pretty bad *** from what he has told me.
