Thanks guys, you're really getting my spirits up. One of the main reasons I have not bought heads until now is that I couldn't convince myself to shell out roughly 2 grand on heads, cam, MAF, injectors and stuff if I was only going to be at or around 300HP, or roughly 101 in the 1/4- especially since I'm at ~98.5mph now, that's a lot of money for only 3-4mph. My reasoning behind this is that a set of underdrive pulleys netted me 3mph! Most of the 94-95 coupes I've seen with heads, cam, intake, etc only run like 101-102mph, hell there are two SC 94-95 verts at my track that only turn like 100mph, one even runs with drag radials! This is why I'm obsessed with ~350HP, I want to run that 105mph or better MPH. I appreciate all the input from everyone, please keep it coming.

Dave- I haven't been to the track since it closed in October. My best pass was a 13.83 at 98.3mph with a 1.91 60', but 90% of all my passes now fall within 13.89-13.83, and my mph is always between 98.3-98.55. What kind of times are you running with that MPH? Those are really impressive numbers, I always wanted to venture down to Mason Dixon dragway or Englishtown NJ before I put the heads on because I'd run a lot better at both tracks in comparison to mine due to elevation. I have a pic of my timeslip on my webpage if you want to compare your to mine to see where you are picking up that MPH- I'm curious. My site is http://www.angelfire.com/pa2/killercanary. Drop me a line.
