All 95-02 3.8 cylinder heads are the same. Are you currently/planning on running a cam, FI, or nitrous? Having p&p heads by themselves won't really do much. They really work well when paired with a cam or power adder. Check out Super Six Motorsports for their heads.Matt

also look into intense racings heads.. I hear they are good.
zzp may do heads as well..
but its not really worth doing unless you have a big cam or FI as said above

While we're plugging non-sponsors here...I'll throw in Abbott Race Heads for my vote! He runs a wee-man cam, and their heads, in his 5 speed car, and has run 13.3's down the 1/4 mile. Their heads are also ALOT cheaper than Intense and ZZP, and he has hella betetr customer service than Tom at SSM!
Shoot me an e-mail for more info on how to contact him.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a> THE SOURCE!

Abbott Racing Heads rock!! :D I'll be in the 12's as soon as I get this 12 bolt in the car and head down to sea level. The 13.30@102.4 was in approximately 4000' DA at a track thats 1800' above sea level. Here is all the prices: http://www.lonestarsix.com/forum19/270.html
And we actually are trying to get a cam GP together, heres the link to it. http://www.lonestarsix.com/forum19/687.html Email me if you have any questions at wickedsix98@hotmail.com
And just for everyones information, all the heads from 95-02 are NOT the same. The 95-97 heads have a divet in the casting where a injector would go that hurts flow about 2%. The 98+ heads do not have that.<b>Black</b> 1998 Pontiac <i>Firebird</i> A-4 swap<br />271.4rwhp/259.4rwtq NA<br />13.30@102.44 <br /><a href=\"http://www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98\" target=\"_blank\">www.freewebs.com/wickedsix98</a>
