Now that racing is over for winter, I'm thinking what I should do over the winter for next year.
I would REALLY like another set of heads but I don't see that happening.
Here's what I'm thinking:
Buy a new solid lifter cam to better match my converter OR sell my NOS sniper system(new in box w/ warmer and purge kit) and put towards new heads if I can swing the rest of the cash I would need.

I could also keep the nitrous and buy the solid cam.
I need some advice!
For those of you that don't remember, my best E.T last year was 12.85@102mph and a best 60' time of 1.67

Would a solid cam wake my combo up a little bit more?
