We need to know your desired results to give some advice. Like, how much HP gain? What you have already meets your requirements :jester

It all depends on how wild or mild you want to go.

Give Chris @ Speed Demon a call.

Call up any tuner MMS, ARE, Cartek etc. and tell them what you want. How streetable it is will be determined by your cam size. But typically the bigger the cam is, the more power you get.

He meant he has the FLPs already.

I would find a tuner close to you that can do the mods, that way if there is a problem you wouldn't have to send the car across the country to get it fixed. Just my opinion.

I would go with the following:
Total Engine Airflow S1.5 heads 11.0:1 Cr
Comp Cams 222/226 114lsa 110icl
LS6 intake
TPIS long tubes
Dr gas x pipe
ASP underdrive pulley

It will make awesome power and be a blast on the street, should pass emissions as long as you have cats.

What rwhp would that be capable of if tuned perfectly?
I have all those pieces except my cam is a Comp 224/224 .581lift and 113lb & I have no cats, larger MAF, and blackwing
My heads are same 11.0:1CR just curious before I take it upto Orlando.
