help with xtra cash

Hey guys just wanted some help on a few choices of upgrades. I recently sold my dirtbike so I have come across an extra 2500 dollars. I have a few mods already such as borla catback, msd 6al, undrive pulley's, K&N cold air intake, those are all of the majors. Anyways I want to get a good set of aluminum heads and a Cam to go with those. I want a pretty mean sounding cam and want my power mostly from take off till mid or somthing like that. I want to try to get low 12's out of my car. I also am looking at getting some headers if anyone would recommend a good set. This money just kind of came to me so I don't mind spending it all on my car I just want to get big gains hopefully out of it. If you guys could help me out or recommend me getting somthing that would help my horsepower gains it would be greatly appreciated I thank you all for your help and time

cam, head work and some jet hot LT's and an ORP would be my choice.

Sounds good to me.

Maybe some rockers also.

If I were you i'd stick to porting the stockers, do a search on porting and i'm sure you'll find some information. Its very cheap to have it done.

You allready have aluminum heads!
ORP = Off Road Pipe, no cats.
I would go with the hotcam, or the 224/230. They have a group purchase on cam kits from cmotorsports.com in this forum.
