    ever since i moved to atl ive been hearing that kms makes the valvetrain for supertech and just put their(supertech) name on it....i see people using them without issues but i know for a fact supertech is a good valvetrain from personal experience, they take the abuse...... so if indeed kms and supertech is the same valvetrain i say its a go

    Pro2s are a waste of money. Your motor isn't hot enough or built enough. Run pro1 or skunk2 stage 2s

    I agree,also from what I read on the pro 2's it takes your power band 800 rpm or so pass stock red line. I was able to find a set of pro 1's from CFT for 550 new in the box. Check there web site or call em to see if they still have that sell going on.

    When I was using them, I used Crane Stage 2 cams. They are like Pro 1's, Bigger than CTR, ITR, ect.

    i vote LS block, cheaper and more plentiful than the blown up GSR counterparts

    I'm going GSR

    I have both so I have room to play... An LS in my car right now and a GSR in the garage(complete SWAP)
    I rather give up 3 or 4 hp and lb of tq and be able to rev higher and have a piece of mind... since I'm going with cast iron pistons and stocks rods... and I have some pretty big cams that make power to about 9 9.5 k
