looks like your going in the rite direction get your supporting mods done so you,re set up for later. get your full exhaust done then get the cam in then it's time to dump some change on some new heads.

If you dont like the price on the cost of LT, ORY, and a Tune together then you will not like the $1300 price tage on a new set of heads that have been worked.

im not to concerned with the price of the LTs/ORY/Tune... i have a feeling thats going to be the biggest gain i will see all at once without forced inductioice n... i just dont know what "upgrading" the heads would actually do... but like i said, i will keep reading on about it.

However, $1300 does seem high, thats half way to forced induction... and thats what i really want, a nice juicy supercharger
