go to the corral.net and do a search in there archives, it has alot of info on the subject. you'll be able to get all the part #'s. it usually costs around $1200 for everything. it is just as reliable as a 99 car. the only difference is your compression will be a little more than 10-1. it's definately worth the money. I have the same amount invested in my exhaust as it costs for the heads

Question

If the compression is raised to a bit of 10:1 then I would expect that it would actually perform better then a 99+ GT. (?)
