Great looking car! Did you have your stock ls1 heads P&P'd? Or did you buy aftermarket castings? Also, if you don't mind, how much power have you put down? Nice clean ride man, well done.

thanks guys. Iv had the car since 03(2nd owner) its been a long time in the making. Yes the hood grills are going to b blacked out soon. What are the thoughts on the side ones? I seem to think they work because of the wheels.

they are stock ls1 heads that were done by MTI out of houston. as far as numbers go very low for the set up 455/460. rings are bad and just not flowing enough air for the 427. H/C change coming plus new rings

Thanks for the info man! I cannot decide if I want to have my stock heads worked, or pick up some 243's. Though your numbers maybe low for the size of your motor, that is about the range I want out of a stock cube ls1 with an automagic. Just don't know what friggin heads to go with
