1 x ECU - Flash scan reprogram – MAFLESS tune
1 x Set of Higgins CNC ported cylinder heads (changeover of course)
1 x ARP high performance head bolt kit
1 x performance camshaft.
1 x performance matched valve springs.
Double row timing chain upgrade (recommended, particularly on older motors)
should give you around 390 kws at the flywheel with some change out of 5 grand

hope this helps:thumbsup:

i dont see how u can get heads and cam for less then 5 grand. The only way is if you do all the work yourself. Tune alone will cost $1000, cam and srings another $1000, Heads dunno much about but gotta be at least $1500+ for some decent higgins heads.
