I agree guys. Always do it right the first time. Just like woman. LOL....I dont have the money for the heads but from the sound of things its worth waiting and saving the money for. For what I am working with now. What would be a good set of heads to go with that will not kill the bank. LOL..

for 700 bucks i'd get a zex kit and find some used drag radials. instant low 12 sec combo with a monkey driving.

sixxxshoooter · November 19th, 2008, 09:12 PM

LOLOL....Notch. I hear that. How would the Nitto DR's and the Zex kit do? Would they hook well enough to get me in the 12's?

i preferr bfgs myself, mickey thompson seem to be the hot ticket right now tho. personally i haven't seen a fast car on nittos at the track ( well anything faster then 13s anyway )

Another for heads and cam

grnstang · November 20th, 2008, 10:25 AM

just get subframes and rear control arms....and wait till u have the money and buy heads, cam, roller rockers

sixxxshoooter · November 20th, 2008, 11:21 AM

Hatch you really hate them Nittos dont you. LOL. Ok, I may do that. I have found a couple good deals that arent too bad. Will need to save another week or so. Found a couple folks selling some AFR heads fully assembled with ARP bolts, Rockers, etc. Not too bad of a price. If I were to pick up some used ones that are assembled, what would I need to do as far as putting them on. Would I just need to spray them down and clean them of debris and so on? Or is there more?

I don't know about the rest of you I would check the assemblies out myself or have a good shop do it, One f#%ked keeper and your in a bad spot.

93hatch · November 20th, 2008, 11:48 AM

id have a machine shop check them out before you put them on your car

TKOTLARZ · November 20th, 2008, 03:47 PM

get a custom cam with the heads..but u really need to stiffen up the rear..u can have power but getting it to the ground is more important..start with the full length subframe connectors and upper/lower control arms..i got a nice set from UPR

sixxxshoooter · November 20th, 2008, 05:34 PM

Ok...I am ordering some upper and lower control arms this weekend. I will get a good shop to check them out then. Then get the cam done. Let me see what this guy is talking about and will give yall the info.
