those heads in the right hands will grant you more horsepower with a matching cam and intake, my sig times are with a fully bolted ls3 setup, heavly modded with a 232/238 cam with a 4k PI converter. that was in 52* weather DA around 200-400

I have a set of l92 heads on mine and they r great but if u do l92 heads u will have to get a l92 intake and a 90mm tb pluse a X-Link to make the tb work. But the l92 heads r the best bang for ur $. I and the intake ports r so big they had to move the rockers over so u will have to get all that if u get a bare head ... But they do kick a$$
