That sounds good to me but when the new Camaros come out. They will be at 425 HP. I know that's not RWHP but with a few bolt on it will be over 400 RWHP. I can't wait for the competition.

Livernois Motorsports has fantastic ported heads for the 3v; the best i've seen. they got 352 RWHP with just their heads, full exhaust, and a CAI.

stay the hell away from FRPP. they have a decent gain above 4200 RPM, but under that, you lose major power. MAJOR power and torque.
Looks like they have 3 stages of heads. Do you know which ones are pumping 352 RWHP? I'm guessing the stage 3, but didn't see it listed anywhere on the site. 352 RWHP is great. If they're getting that from the stage 1 for $1695/pr, that's outstanding. For $2895 for stage 3, the value is a little more diluted.
the stage 2 heads are the ones that made 352 RWHP.

Would be a good choice to do the Stage 2 heads + comp cams, since they're already in the engine thing hehe
What would be the outcome with full exhaust and intake? 380 rwhp ?

I'll let you guys know my outcome. I'm doing stage 3 heads + stage 3 cams as we speak. Hopefully I'll be ready for that cruise coming up on the 12th of may.

Definitely keep us posted! This is certainly something to consider. I think for the price of the supercharger you could get close to 400 RWHP N/A, and then when you need more you could still throw on the SC and be pushing well over 500 RWHP. I'm kind of liking that idea.
