you can get some PEM'* from HulkSpeed.com or you can get TOG'* or SLP headers

with an unlimited budget and to make better than your "average SE"

Intense PCM
FWI
1.9 ratio rockers
springs are optional
and OR pushrods would also be optional
PEM'* or 'Headers'
High flow cat

that will give u a noticable gain

I'm not trying to start a flame war or anything but I just wanted to point out that the new owner of Hulkspeed.com has been flakey with his customers lately. At least thats what I've been reading. So watch out.
I can find two threads about this on two forums if anyone wants.

Spank you sir. It should be stated. If there are problems with vendors, people SHOULD be warned.

(above statement made assuming it'* not another vendor bashing hulkspeed)

Get PEM'* over headers, much cheaper and you'll never flow enough air to warrant the headers with an L36 unless you go with a turbo. Get a cam over rockers, it'* more work but you'll get better power throughout the RPM range.

Sound advice. Very sound.

Rockers can only give you increased lift. A cam can give you lift AND duration.
