vortechs are pretty good if you have someone do a nice port job on them.. the head choice depends on what kind of racing you want to accomplish.. street? dragstrip? road course? do you want lightweight aluminum and higher compression or are you gonna eventually go forced induction? theres a lot of things to consider.. what size cam are you using?

vortec and a perf rpm are a pretty good combo for a moderate (350-400 hp) street car.

i want to have a fast street and strip car one that is good both sides. I just want to have a nice low 8 high 7 1/8 mile car. I dont want to bring up the compression due to gas prices either but i want a good strong engine that is going to be ok with n02. already have forged pistons. i want a better top end and a bigger cam. like some track 1 brodix heads?? buddy said they are really good along with a rpm airgap intake. would this setup do alot better than my current setup? thnx
