    Update.

    Decided to keep it. Honestly really never wanted to sell it. It’s a solid car. Sounds great and runs strong.

    Whenever my heads are ready …. Version 2.0 will commence. …along with a solid cam.

    See if it can beat the 478 Hemi it shares a garage with .. haha

    Assuming
    Assume you're talking al. heads. SE stage 1 or stage2s? Design the cam around the head flows and compression.
    BTW, great to hear you're keeping "goldilocks"

    Awesome - I assume those are MT long tube headers, what is the cam and exhaust after the headers.

    Gary - I'm waiting on a set of SE Stage 1 heads. I've been on the list since 8/2022. My thinking was to get them worked on and then follow your suggestion on the cam profile.

    Bill - Yes, they are MT long tube headers that run into a 3" exhaust (no X or H pipe) and Spintech 9000 mufflers. The cam is a KB Maxi-3 cam with ported iron Stage 1 heads.

    That’s a great cam. At the time my street car with that cam all iron, intake exhaust manifolds and ported iron heads with just under 11.0 compression ran 11.70s @114 to 115 mph all day long. Your car looks great!
