After careful consideration and debate whether to go retro with an iron Chevy SB vs. a modern LS1...

...I just bought a 2002 LS1 complete with all accessories, PCM, wiring harness, fuel rails, fuel pump, T56 trans, shifter, computer, etc. EVERYTHING for $6499.

The best part... it only has 1200 miles on it. [Big Grin]

EXACTLY!! I'm looking for a good heads/cam combo that'll make it sound like a racecar and be on the verge of being streetable. I want as much torque as possible. Anyone have any suggestions?
