Heads/Cam/Lifter ideas?

Got a 1992 RS (I know, I've been doing a lot of posting in TBI), and I really want to get better numbers with it when summer comes around.

I'd like to put new heads on (yes, I am fully aware that that requires a lot of machining and a valve job), a new cam, and roller rockers, and I'd like to know what I should buy because this car is a daily driver and I am commuting 70 miles a day at least for the next two years.

I'd like good performance (at least 220hp) with good gas mileage and without a lumpy popcorn maker idle.

Should I really mod a 120k LO3, or swap?

Some ideas?

Thanks!

Re: Heads/Cam/Lifter ideas?

I do agree with with rough. For a bit more money you could upgrade a little more with heads, intake, tbi, fuel pump and cam and get her up to 325-350hp easily.

Lots of suggestions on the boards here. Also, give Brian from tbichips.com a call. He can assist you in all these decisions and also help with the chip tuning.

Good luck!!!
