Wow chief ... that's a lot of money.  What are you doing with it all ;-)

>street performance drops off slightly.  

??  Try telling my car that :-)

Hindsight though - I would have gone with

True so true.  In retrospect I would have purchased the AFR210 competition 
heads.  Oh well ... next motor.

Very cool.  Ever think about the Fast Burn heads in conjunction with the 
new Ram Jet intake?  You can buy both the heads and the intake separately. 
 Seems like a great way to get similar results as compared to an AFR MiniRammed 
motor.

>Mini-ram didn't take aeway your lower end performance in that setup?

Yes - I think so ... but, there we go making hypotheses again with no data 
to back it up ;-)  However, with that said let me tell you that my MiniRam 
motor with a PI Vig 2800 stall and 3.73s can BLAZE the tires through all 
of first, second, and part of third.  Heh heh ... and we are talking Drag 
Radials with solid bushing LCAs, solid bushing panhard, solid SSPE Torque 
Arm set to -4deg, LCA relocation brackets on lowest setting, Air Bags in 
rear springs, SFCs, blablabla ... you get the point.  I have serious traction 
mods and the MiniRam can still roast the tires like crazy.  How's that for 
torque!
