cam and heads..

hey guys,
im looking for a cam and heads for my camaro 2ss. its a 2010 6 speed manual ls3. It has kooks long tubes, high flow cats, and magnaflow catback. It also has a CAI. Im looking for a street cam and heads. I still drive it everyday but im looking for more power. Is it better to just polish and port my own heads? or buy a new set? Also what kind of street cams are most of you running? i do want to be able to drive it everyday but a very little lope wouldn't bother me either. Please let me know what your thoughts are? also what about the stock intake? is it ok? stock throttle body??

Thanks,
Chris Prater

the LS3 heads flow very well and arent worth porting unless u get an extreme cam or go the FI route. im running a Smooth Idle Blower Cam from Janetty Racing very streetable and so is the Rough Idle Cam with your mods you would be looking at about 450 rwhp. A blast on the street and strip. oh the money u would spend on porting the heads wouldnt be worth the power u gained unless u went those other routes i mentioned before. good luck with your decision
