In case someone doesn't care to look at all my pictures and put 2 and 2 together...Changes are:

799/243 heads milled .030
Lunati .660 lift dual springs
GM .055 MLS head gaskets (lost a little compression, should be around 10.2:1 now)
GM LS7 lifters
GM header studs
GM header gaskets
New COMP pushrods
Pat G custom cam

I've also purchased some
Summit Racing 50/50 rear drag shocks
Summit Racing 90/10 fronts
Not the best option I know, but definitely better than what I have now and relatively inexpensive as well.

I ALSO recently put a Nitrous Outlet plate on my truck and redid my nitrous wiring. I'll snap some pics after the truck is put back together and cleaned up.

Sounds like a good plan. What are the specs on the cam?

kinda looks like the pattern for the exhaust gaskets on the sealing surface
