If you are going to spend the money to swap heads/cam you might as well get better parts and make some serious power.

Its not a waste, and its what i want for my car, so you can either help me or just not say anything, i dont need a bunch of opinions on whats better and whats not, just part numbers.

Ok, this is not an opinion it is a fact. You would be much better off if you calmed down and listened to knowledgeable forum members who are just trying to help you. They could explain why your 99 with an A4 will not perform as well as an 02-04 ZO6 if you made the exact same flywheel hp. They could even tell you a few parts you left off that list if you are attempting to duplicate the power of a stock LS6. Or you can proceed with your attitude of, "Just give me the part numbers because I know exactly what I want and what I'm doing and the Hell with anybody that attempts to make any helpful suggestions that don't agree with my plan." That attitude usually works out fantastic

Yeah dude. You'll get schooled by any stock '02-'04 ZO6 after you spend all that time and money. But do as you please. Just sayin...
