blown head gasket=new parts!!

Well, last night my car overheated and I am pretty sure I blew my head gasket. So that is going to have to be fixed, and while my car is out of commision for a while I figured I might as well do a few other things while it is sitting. I was thinkin about getting a bigger cam and maybe some 1.6 Roller Rockers. Does anybody have any suggestions on what cam I should get and if the rockers would be a good investment. This is all goin onto my 89 GTA that has the 350. I plan on putting headers on at this time too, so any suggestions for that headers are the best for the price and also which would be the easiest to install (emmisions legal is a must). Most of my other mods are in the sig, but since then I have had the tranny rebuilt with a new shift kit and a corvette servo. I also just put on an Aurora Ignition and Aurora 8.5mm plug wires. So if you guys have any suggestion it would help alot. I plan on starting this in the next few days, so I can get to the track quick! Thanks alot guys.

SLP makes a cam that should work great for you. If you want it real lumpy then I wouldn't know what is best. Try Summitt. I have Edelbrock headers that I am putting on this weekend, as well as a head gasket. THe headers are nice, and real easy to put on, so I've heard, but the paint will probably flake off and rust quickly. I don't want to mess with it so I sent em in to get ceramic coated at Jet Hot. They look great! I can't wait till they're in. Also while you have the whole top end off, you could do fuel upgrades intake upgrades, distributor, etc. Have fun!
