Default Faith Renewed in my crossfire advice wanted on heads and cam work

Hey guys its been awhile since I posted. First off I love my crossfire it is by far the coolest car I have ever owned. A few weeks ago I got fustrated with the lack of aftermarket support and the ridculous cost of the parts avalible. I ended up picking up a 240sx and in the process of putting a small block in it. Last week I dropped my block off to my machist and we got into talking about the crossfire. He suggested that I port, polish and do a 3 angle valve job on the heads. I thought about it and thought why not. I felt a little foolish that I gave up quickly and ignored obvious power gainiers. I also inquired about doing a custokm grind on the cams. I am going to more research and if it works I will. Share the info with you guys. I have also made a custom CAI and let me tell you I can not believe the gains that it produced. I also put a 75 wet shot which I sitll havent used. I have seen people gain 50-60 hp on sbc from head and cams so why cant crossfires? So with my intake exhaust , head and cam work and I think I am going to go with the tvt cams spacers and injectors I think we can close to the 300 crank mark. I have the car off the road for the winter and have my 4th quarter bonus burnign a hole in my pocket so I think I am going to persue it. If any oone has done head or cam work aand has some advice I would appreciate it. Also I almost forgot I have a fabricator over here that says he can make me headers for $500 what do you guys think. I know the vrp one are over 2k which is crazy
