iron gt40's sell for $300, you would only bolton about 25 hp if you don't port them a bit, you can spend just a couple hundred bucks on porting the exhaust, and a good valve job, bolt on closer to 45 probably

heads , gears and nitrous are the 3 biggest improvements you'll see for the money

If this is a drag application and you dont have gears yet, that should be the next mod hands down

yeah im leaning towards it now, but i head installing them yourself is hard becuase you have to use like a magnet and have to be presice and it you mess up that it could tear it up .... but if yall want to hekp me out on that and lead me on step by step it worth a try.


also i using a c-4 tranny so is there certain gears for auto tranny, or can i use just the regular 8.8 pinion and gears
