Thomas_W said:my mistake.. my buddy got a 55rwhp gain on a set of ported nonPI heads after swapping to the pI cams and intake...
And even your numbers, 20-30 for cams/intake and 40 for the full swap, why waste the extra $1000 or so for a set of heads when they are only worth 10rwhp. And then if you decide to put a blower/turbo on later your limited on the boost b/c of the higher compression ratio. Doesn't make much sense to me.
And why if the stock manifolds are so much of a restriction do you only gain about 0-5rwhp w/ a set of shorty headers... If they were such a restriction i'd think i'd see more than 5hp. Have you ever seen a set of FRPP shorties? they are nothing more than a tubular version of the stock cast iron manifolds...

well i got my pi heads for 200 shipped with the valve covers and all. also, you can get the cosmetic gaskets and keep it at 9:1 or even 8.5:1 when you put them in.
