Default Heads/Intake

Hey guys, I have a question.

I have a V3 AA blower on a LQ4. Would I be better off keeping my BBK intake with ported 243 heads, or BBK intake with 317s, or LS3 intake with LS3 heads?

Thanks!

I think the LS3 heads will have the most potential...depends on who ported the 243's

LSA heads are another good option, and LS3 intakes are very friendly on the wallet. Picked mine up locally for $100.

Another vote for getting rid of the BBK.
