Go to modulardepot.com and ask there. High hp mod guys go there and are very informative. Try VT they make some good heads and cams. I think Big Boi in Fremont also makes smog legal stuff. johnny

Not too up on the 2v stuff anymore but i think it's common knowledge that if you are planning on delving into the motor to do the cams it might be worthwhile to think about porting the heads as well.
A far a staying smog legal...i don't think there are many profiles out there that would net hp for the amount of $$.
Like stated VT, Comp, Livernois etc. appear to have good valvetrain for the mod motors.

Irish- whats up man? Is your motor about to go? I would think you would have massive power gains with a blower over tearing into the motor and going that route. An S trim, Cooler, and a little larger pump will get you a lot. And if you buy the Vortech stuff it will have Carb numbers so you should be able to pass without any problems (might be wrong.)

This is going to be for the new motor. But just getting thoughts for now. See what options I have and what would be the best for the $$. Kinda brain storming out loud.
But then the 04 cobra is an options as well!

That way you get 2 extra cams, a blower, built bottom, and a T-56

IRISH- Quit fucking around and go get the 04 cobra. Hands down not a hard decision.
