I am looking into a different radiator though since mine is getting a bit beat up. I will most likely go with Howe still but it depends if I can pick up a sponsorship. More concerned with getting the cage put in...

That size does get a bit warm but it does work. I also have a 25% underwrite damper which further reduces cooling.

Vas, once you get this thing running and have all the bugs worked out you need to drive up here so we can get a nice big turbo kit fabbed up 
Get it tuned up here and drive back (lots of shops tune those engine all day long up here)

yepp!
I spoke to Rich from WC cylinder heads, my heads are being worked and should be done in 8 days..
Awesome guy to work with. I gave em my goal and the list of mods and we went over the best parts. got the complete head package. I upgraded some more internals as well.. apr heads studs etc..
heres a short list of what i remember :
brand new SB gen.4 L92/ls3 head casting
REV L92 intake valve 2.165
REV ls3/l92 stainless steel exh.val. 1.600x4.930
PEP dual spring w/ titanium retainers
Rock arm stand
ARP pro head series stud kit
ARP cam bolts
CHE precision LS3 rock arm set ( these were 650 alone! for high reving )
CNC stage2.5 porting
street strip 8cyl valve job
I dont remember the cam specs
these are fully assembled.
We talked alot about drivability and he gave me a cam thats not too extreme but not too soft either, so we settled in between. it'll start to make power around 2800 and hold it all the way 6900... with my valve train and high reving bearings as well as the fast, I wanna rev to at least 7-7500K . We will see when tuned.
He said that these were the best street extreme cam. too extreme and it would suffer at idle, and drivability. Ill get the specs when he sends me it

Generally in the $300-$350 range. That' with a couple AN fittings and tabs welded on also. Mind also had a cut core which increases the price. I believe mine is a 24 wide by 18 tall. It's actually the same radiator as I had on my v-mount a couple years back.
That size does get a bit warm but it does work. I also have a 25% underwrite damper which further reduces cooling.

Thanks for the info
