currently now headers are available as well as a head porting service. funstick and i are finalizing calibration on a custom chip for use with the heads, headers and ford 19# mustang injectors. parts to come next year hopefully by spring will be a custom cam to match the heads and headers. a turbo kit is in the works also. possible parts are long tube headers and maybe a intake or some sort of fix for the sharp 135* turn of the upper manifold.

what exactly does the head porting service include? id be interested in the chip as well. whats the price range for these. im considering rebuilding my 3.1 next fall and making nitrous capable as well, possibly the turbo. if you guys needed an extra test car with the headers i live fairly close down in IN

the head service has 2 different stages right now. stage 1 includes porting the bowls, modifing the short turn and the vane. a competition valve job. swirl polishing the valves. better springs and retainers (delete oil shedder) and PC seals on both the intake and the exhaust.. stage 2 includes all of stage 1 plus stainless valves and chamber modification. stage 2 is made for nitrous and turbo motors. the heads are professionally done by the guy that originally ported these things back in the day when GM used these engines in stadium truck racers and so on. prices for the heads are $525 stage 1 and $725 for stage 2. the price does not include cores, shipping or extras if they need valve guides. i can usually also get cores for 40-50 bucks. the custom chip will be $150 and it will be upgradable for the future. it will probably be a 50 dollar upgrade altough that is yet to be determined.

PM me when you're ready to offer PROMs. Redraif's car has ported heads, the PF&E headers, 19 lb injectors, and a custom grind cam and seems way out of tune to me...not making near the horsepower it should (though torque is around 210 at the rear wheels).

yeah it is going to be interesting. my v8 car runs great but i love the balance of handling with my v6. so if i can my v8 power out of my 6 i can have a lot of fun.
