yea ima keep it N/A until the 3.8 gives out.......

If I get the stock heads and lower intake ported would that give any decent gains? (can get machine work done next to nothing is why i ask.)

Yeah it'll give you gains but nothing to run home chanting about, but with some good precision machine work done 20-30 rwhp isn't out of the question. So if you can get it done for a good price then jump all over that.

$1775 from Super Six if you plan on installing everything yourself. If you pay to have it installed it would be quite expensive.
