At that point, it's not streetable.

I'm looking to have 10.5:1 CR with a 3400 .020 over with the heads I bought from MFuller. Already have the "stage 2" P&P manis, LS6 springs, 3500 valves, in the car along with headers.

I'm waiting on my Street/Strip cam which is .506/.506 which is 276/264 Duration .006 and at .050 is 224/212

As far as the main question, I would buy the heads,mani package for the best port matching. Lifters, stock is fine, rocker arms hold off on. Ben is working with Crane to get a good set for 99+ roller rockers

Huh? Was that directed at me?
If so, I have absolutely no clue what you are talking about.

Redog have you spoke with Ben about those springs and that much lift? When I did my cam I had talked to him about being able to get ls6 springs cheap and he advised against it, suggesting the comp cams 2696 would be much better on my setup for longevity.

Very true, ben mentioned the same thing to me, the comp 26986 springs would be a much better choice....

No I never did talk to Ben about it, but I just figured if I was going with a .506 lift cam, these would be fine, since they are rated up to .510 lift.

If need be, I could always buy new springs when I do my rebuild

High comp FI is always great! The issues with it is finding a tuner who feels comfortable tuning it.

No doubt. I would probably just end up getting HP tuners and doing it all myself as I am the only person I trust with my car besides a few close friends.
