New top end (?)

Hi all,

As I mentioned in another thread, I'm thinking about throwing my new HSR intake & AFR 195 heads on my L98, so that I can enjoy them this summer. I don't plan on swapping a new cam into it, because I plan to be doing an LQ4 swap over the fall/winter, so there's no sense in getting into L98 tuning issues.

My question is, how would it run if I were to do that? You can see (most of) the mods I already have in my vbGarage. I guess I'm just wondering if it'd be worth the effort for such a short period of time...

Thanks...

Re: New top end (?)

OK, I guess maybe I should rephrase it - considering the fact that I'll probably be selling the heads fairly soon, does anyone have any suggestions as to whether I should install them or not?

On the one hand, I'd like to get some enjoyment out of 'em, but not if it's going to degrade their value significantly... But on the other hand, I might get enough fun out of 'em that it could be worth it! And if I do install them, I'd probably want to sell the whole L98 w/ stock bottom end, AFR heads, & HSR intake...

So - To install, or not to install, that is the question...

(I'm fairly sure either way that I'll be installing the intake though...)

Thanks guys.
