I'm in the same boat as you with the choice on the heads....I'm not sure the cost is worth the 20hp. At this point, I'm pretty sure I'm going to pass on the heads.

I sold the 99 to local guy from Tech, he the car to death, and drove on the Power Tour with me this year. The 99 was a legit 11 second car, and he knocked down 24mpg on the trip. LSX power
Heads are for sure worth it on L99 cars because you have to remove them anyway for a decent cam upgrade. Ported heads for these cars only cost about as much as quality headers. If we can spend $1,200.00 on headers for 25hp than we can spend it on heads for the same amount. I mean if your going to have the heads off anyway why not.
