If your CR is really that low (9.75:1) then I would forget about heads and look into a supercharger or turbo with a custom blower cam. It will never make much more HP than stock with lower CR even with 383 cubes. Otherwise, I would look into stock ported heads/cam package from advanced induction or Lloyd Elliot....maybe they can mill the heads down and you can use a thinner head gasket to get CR above stock levels (10.5:1) and get a custom cam much better suited than the hot cam.

I thing u need 2 esplain yo bild betta bro.

What crank? Cast or forged?

What pistons? Why so low compression? Who specced that out for you?

What do you mean LT4 intake? Do you mean Edelbrock LT4 intake?

Do you have a CAI or do you have just a K&N filter in a stock intake?

What kind of nitrous kit do you have on it? Plate, direct port, cheap nozzle, etc.

Has it been dynoed before? Or do you have current track times?

What is your goal?

What is your budget?

Auto or manual?

Or are you just trolling us by posting up the worst possible combination of a build and seeing if you can get 96capricemgr to have a heart attack?
