Default Top end kit

New to the forum but longtime Corvette fan and owner. Current ride is a ‘95 with 64k miles. The car is in great shop but I would like to get more power. I am considering Edelbrock’s Top End kit. Would like to know thoughts and any experience anyone else may have. Also under consideration are heads and cam from elliottportworks. Look forward to the feedback!

Elliot port works hands down. I had him port my AFR heads and I picked up almost 40rwhp. You will gain much more power from one of his packages over the Edelbrock crap.

What kind of setup are you running?

I'd send him my Darts if I knew I was going to gain that much.

I have Dart Pro1 200cc

The heads were originally 180cc. He ported them to 212cc. I gained 35cfm on the intake and 28cfm on the exhaust. I kept the 2.02/1.6 valves. I could have picked up another 10cfm going with a 2.055 intake valve but chose to stick with the 2.02. I gained 38rwhp from the port work. This is a stock bottom end auto LT1 with custom cam, full exhaust, gears, 3600 stall ext. I put down 401rwhp.
