Default Educate me please about H/C

I did all the search possible and still can't get some answers.


I want to upgrade my H/C

I want the MS4 cam, but don't know what Heads to buy with it. I have about $2,000 to play around with for the whole package including gaskets, chain and oil pump.

So far what I found out is that with the MS4 cam there are some clearance issues with the valves and the pistons. Something about "ptv contact on MS4" what the heck is PTV? is it Piston Touching Valves?

Is it smart to have a stock bottom end?


My goal is to Run mid 11's N/A and Mid 10's on spray.


My current mods are:

Stage 1 p&p 98 heads
227/227 cam
3600 stall
12 bolt with 3.73's
Suspension done (lca, tq arm..ect) except shocks
150 shot NX system.
6pt roll cage
and other bolt ons.

With the spray i did 11.1 @ 120 mph with 1.47 60ft.

I want to go faster.


thanks for any input.

OR in your case (cheaper approach)

I assume stage 1 heads have stock valves and unmilled.

T-REX, degreed
NW TB, Tony Mamo ported FAST
YPT 4400 Yank
Rossler tranny with transbrake
12 bolt rear
Wolfcraft sway
SD tune no MAF
Coil overs (suspension), tuned
Spohn torq arm
Weight reduction (skinnies and light rims)
28 inch ET Drags

F*ck the juice

Why don't you have PredatorZ or Patrick G spec you out a custom cam tailored to your needs.
