Also, dont forget, you might want to come up with an adjustable cam gear for the exhaust cams, to kill some of that overlap that the SVT cams(breat N/A cams.. crappy{ok not crappy, but not ideal} setup for forced induction...)add in....(if youre gonna go through all that trouble of hacking up some SVT cams to put in a 3.0 Block)
Actually, I was thinking of welding an aluminum bead in between the intake and exhaust valves and reshape it a bit to accomplish a similar effect much easier. It's what some of the touring cars did to redirect flow at higher RPMs.
warmonger, have you had the heads sonic checked before and after your metal removal? I was told that the water jackets are different and there isn't enough material to safely remove in those areas on the 2.5 heads. I was going to do the same thing to mine, but then ended up just removing the sharp edges and unshrouding the valves a little bit instead.
