Default Yes... It's another Mini-Me.... Suggestions on build

My a6 head is shot, and I dont have the money for the swap I want. I figured that I would save for about a year or so, and maybe do a k or something.. who knows! But right now I need transportation. So my buddy syggested a mini-me, since I already have the head off, I have done my research as to what it will take. I want to do a mild build on the head. new valve springs, retainers, a cam, adj cam gear. What brands do you recommend? Different setups that you have heard of? Or, any suggestions you may have. If all you know how to do is flame then don't bother posting.

Thanks in advance

you'd be better off saving all the money (easily 1K+ for a built head) you'd use to build the head to put towards the swap you really want.

I have an SI head in working condition you can have for $25 plus shipping.

Just build it with a nice cam or high compression. Z6 and Y8 heads flow pretty good from the factory.

Save ur money for a turbo or wut not?
