also look into getting a PSR. then look into getting some C heads to replace those b heads

The guy only wants 300whp, new heads mean a new intake, (C heads wont fit with his stock intake) He might as well just do CMS stg 2 N/A cams, valvesprings to rev a little higher some 4.10s or 4.30s a $300 exhaust and sticky tires/suspension.

I wish that was the route i would have went, woulda saved me alot of money and i could be running low 12s possibly even high 11s.

That seems excessively high and i'm afraid of long term wear and tear on my motor keeping it at 3k for that long. Car has 81k miles.

No as long as they are installed possibly 3k isn't ****, granted they do have pretty long stock rods 3k rpm is not that much you should be fine. You have an auto do yourself a HUGE favor and go 4.10s or steeper. Word of mouth is 3.73s in a manual feel like 4.10s in an auto etc etc.
