My first build i did was at 135,000 with just a top end rebuild, headers, injectors, gears, and a CC305 with full supporting vavle train.. It ran great and i was running it up to 6300 RPM and it held up, if you take car if your car i think you'll be fine man, and nitrous does wonders but is very addicting

Verdad Gallardo And as far as doing the 383 build i'm sure you can do it for that but you might as well wait and save up more cause whe you start getting into it you always seem to want more expensinve stuff and more power and before you know it that price tag just went to 7,000 to 8,000 lol

Trust me in the end it will cost alot more than you think. Don't forget all the cost in valvetrain, injectors, fuel pump, couple hundred in gaskets, manifold porting, TB, head bolts, etc. etc. Figure $3500 for just a heads/cam swap.

wow i didnt know that i had to do the injectors and the fuel pump? how do you pick what ones?
Depends on how aggressive the heads and cam are in terms of the injectors. Some SVO 30's usually do the trick if not some 36's would be good. The best fuel pump kit IMO is the Racetronix 255.
