Just curious, since you're already gonna have everything off, why not just go ahead and get some ported heads? That way the only weak link will be the blower. If there is any time to do it then that's now. The manifolds, blower, and cam will all be removed. Just a few more bolts and get those heads replaced with better flowing units!!
Right now it's all the green I want to spend, I don't have to tell you the cost, you know. I would just as soon done just a cam but then as you know without supporting components it really would have been a waste. We talked about the heads and Blake's experience with ported heads. Came down to quite a bit more money to gain maybe 15-20 hp. The stock heads flow plenty good for the build I am doing. Again not chasing the highest number but, solid reliability. I have no plans to go any further.

On a side note just came back from a run out thru the countryside where I live. It's all twist, turns and hills with new pavement and NO traffic at all this time of day, even on a busy day a couple cars at the most. You could run100 miles and never run the same road. It's almost like your own personal track, nothing but a few big farms. Point is, even with wide open spaces still cannot use all it's got now. Love that A10 in track mode!
