If you are planning on changing heads and cam I would have whatever provider you choose spec both to make sure you have a setup that is optimized for your specific engine combo

those trickflow 205s look badass. Run a small chamber with thinnner gaskets and bump up the compression

trickflows are a little more pricy than I would go for a 4.8 in a daily driver but hey, if the money's there and not a problem go for it!

yeah, there xpensive, but trickflows have been proven to be some of the best heads out there.

then again, you might get more bang for the buck swapping out to a lq9. Its whatever you wanna do
