Nope... I may be able to get 6-bolt heads now instead of waiting until next year. Brandon is getting me a price. If that happens, we'll have to wait a bit to get them.

If you can swing it to get the 6 bolt heads it will be well worth it as you can crank the boost up without the worry of lifting the heads.

That's the plan. I just had to sell my maggie to make sure I had the funds in line. Sold the maggie this week...

Now I'm just waiting for the estimate from IPS_Brandon.

Haha! Brandon got the quote to me while I was typing that last post.

We're going to go with:
All Pro LS7 Six bolt cylinder heads
CTS-V hydraulic lifters
Hogan Intake

Here is the intake I selected:


They will order it to fit under my hood.

I'd stay away from that one. It's blurry. I'd get one that is higher resolution.

I agree. Blurry pics definitely offer less wind resistance and will just clog up the flux capacitor.
