Default Big decision 3-4000$ budget!!

I have an 05 GTO currently running stock bottom end and stock heads cam is a custom ground 595/595 duration?? Not sure exactly what all the specs are on the cam, long tubes and exhaust. the drivetrain is stock, lovells springs on the back 275 nittos out back, im ordering gforce drive shaft and axels and 3:92 gears and a spool, i will have 3-4k budget left after drivetrain parts, my question is what would be the most bang for my buck as far as engine mods, i think my valve train needs some freshening, its getting a little noisy. Im thinking about going to a magic stick 4 cam with prc 2.5 ls6 heads. Am i going in the right direction with that? What do you guys think would get the most bang for the buck?

If you'd like a nice H/C/I package I can set you up with a very nice package to meet your goals easily.

We just did a LS2 6.0 GTO stock bottom end the other day with PRC "As Cast" 225cc heads, our V.2 Polluter cam, Fast 92 with stock un ported TB, SD 93 octane tune, Vararam intake, Kooks headers, off-road connection pipes and corsa exhaust that made 506/443 to the tires SAE.

Not many if anyone can lay claim to a stock bottom end 6.0 making 500rwhp+ with completely UN-touched "As Cast" heads through full exhaust, but Tick Performance can!

Damn, that is most definitely impressive to say the least. Don't forget to add a clutch into that budget if you haven't already done so. Your gonna need it to handle your new found power and stronger drivetrain.

The one we did is on a stock clutch and after a good 2-3 shift at red line clutch pedal is stuck to the floor. Definitely get a clutch.

Honestly it really is. It just takes the right parts put together by the right person. Even then, honestly anyone could do it, but it's really about understanding exactly what the customer wants and making it reality.

You can do all of this installed and stay in the $3k-$4k budget?
