nitrous or LE1 heads
 
iam installing new plugs, CAI, cb exhaust, LT headers, cc503 cam, and a madz28 tune. what would you reccomend i do to get the most bang for my buck, le1 heads or the NOS 100 - 150 hp dry shot nitrous. i know the whole "it costs to refil that bottle" or "the heads are all the time and the nitrous is only when you use it/limited" but as a general question which one would you do?

Well, seeing that you are already tearing up the motor to put in the cam., then I would say go with the LE1 heads as well. As you already know, you will have the extra power all the time where the nitrous will be an on-demand sort of thing.

If you go ahead and get the juice and want the heads later, it is going to cost you money for the install or the time of doing it yourself. You are already taking apart most of the top end, why not do the heads. Later on when you get bored with the power you have, go for nitrous. Until then I think you will be happy with the h+c, the le1 package is great. It is in my future plans.

depends what you want..40-50 hp, or 100-150 hp? is it going to be a drag car? then get nitrous. if street car..then get the heads...and do nitrous later when you get bored with the power. nitrous will be your best bang for the buck though.
