    Too bad you live so far away, I would install if for you for less than that.

    Just a little heads up: the hydraulic lifters from comp, which is what zzp sells I presume, are OE spec. YOu can save $200 bucks by taking them apart and having them cleaned.

    I just re-used my old pushrods. I spin the engine up to 6000rpm all the time, and the pushrods don't mind. you really do need new springs, but you can get away with re-using the old locks and retainers. They aren't moving parts, so they ought to be in good condition. Mine were.

    Heads are really expensive. It is well known that expensive cylinder heads on our engines don't provide the power gains that you expect.

    If you are trying to break a world record, do what everyone else says. If you just want to liven up the old v6, use my shortcuts.
