What pistons? Rods? Heads? Cams? I'm staying N/A.. my goal is 11's... Matt (9COBRA8) what pistons are you running for 12:1 ? fuel delivery system? Oil? I'd like around 350-375 rwhp n/a... I'm almost dipping 12's w/ 271 so I think w/ 375 roughly I may be able to pull of an 11 w/ e.t streets/slicks...any idea's would help.. thanks

Your heads are going to kill you. About $2,500 for a good complete set. Talk to wikd281. His motor is getting built at hCI in SAC. If your block is still good, you can get a rebuild for around $4,000

You might check into the NMRA mod motor class. Those guys are already doing what you are hoping to. It won't be cheap, and it won't be easy.After probably $5-7k you'll be where a $500 hit of N20 would have taken your stock stuff.

Brian.. my buddy does CNC machine work and is going to port/polish/extrude hone my heads for REAL cheap.. we won't even get into price.. but anyhow... I want to go all out.. I don't want to go half ass.. I'm thinking billet rods n shit....

here are just a few things that would be more cost effective and beneficial then a rebuild right now..
1. long tubes...
2.MAJOR intake work.. and im not talking about a simple IMRC kit here...
3.dump some weight.K-member,seats, ETC..
4. DRIVING !!!!!
what good does 375RWHP do you if you cant get out to the 13's w/ it ????? LOL 
MATT... im not busting your balls...ok well i am , but think about it ..w/ just some bolt-ons your car is traping at 107mph+.. w/ the above mods im sure you would see a 110-112mph no problem.. why the rebuild now ? do you have $5k EASY burning a hole in your pocket? him me up on IM'er..
