Default AFR 205's getting ordered!!!

Just called and left my checkcard number with Mike at Norris (Next Level Perf) to go ahead and get the heads ordered.
Getting the heads milled down to about 60cc and having the spring upgrade done as well. I am keeping the G5X-2 cam in the car and am basically only changing out the heads, adding injectors, and a new LS-2 timing chain set-up. I am keeping everything else the same. Should be a good test to see the difference picked up from stock heads to the AFR's.
All mods are in sig. Once the heads get done the car will be on its way to Orlando. I will keep you all updated as things progress.

Norris motorsport will be doing all the work, and he is pretty sure flycutting is going to be required.

I am not even gonna worry about power numbers, I will just be happy whatever I get.
It is more of a way for me to make sure I keep my car instead of doing something stupid like getting rid of it.

I will keep you guys updated as to the results as I get them back. Should be about a month plus, depending on how long it takes to get the AFR's done the way I want them.

I am interested to see what it will make, since I dont have a pulley, Ported TB, still have cats on, and am not running Kooks or LG's.
Some of those parts will come further down the line, I just really want a true heads only comparison.

Default Ben is a good buddy of mine who is currently out

of the country(USMC) until the end of next month when he comes home on leave. I'm sure he'll be on here with the results soon after he gets home. Think about it this way.... He hasn't driven his car in 7+ months...he is flying into Orlando to pick the car up and drive his new beast home (2 hour ride) and all he has driven in 7 months is a Toyota Corolla and a few camels. It is fair to say, he will be all grins on his ride home. ........................................ ........................................ ...........

then it's off to call the old girlfriend....
