I think it would be best you grab one of those heads, port&polish it (sherwood), 87mm 11:1 pistons with valve reliefs, custom intake and exhaust (i can help you build both of those) and get cam regrinds of the stock gtir cam to some custom spec (youd need a guru like bigtoe/chuck to recommend stn), some standalone management (horatio brown tune) and I think you should get what your looking for, and i dont think itll be too expensive (and daily capbable)... what u think?

Yo blo0d will definitely need the help with the intake and exhaust. looking to use a ported Gtir mani, a ported high port mani with a bored or bigger TB or custom mani. I want to run high CR (11:1 to 11.5:1) big bore (90 -92 mm), forged aluminum, lightweight pistons for more displacement and lighter internals. dont want to increase the stroke though cuz I want to keep the motor high revving. Think I will be trying C3 cams as I like what I see from the dyno charts Superblacks posted; and a Nistune tune. Blo0d, all your support will be greatly appreciated with this build still.
Question. does the Gtir head flow much better than a highport? apart from the intake mani, sodium filled valves and bigger valves, wat would be the pros
Superblacks. Thanks alot for the info and the references. great info.
