Why ruin a perfectly reliable SLEEPER ?? A ud pully, and ewp might get you real close to 400 rwhp, and 400 rwtq, and the gas mileage is going to be awesome. Provided that you don't stomp her off the line all the time. About time somone did a heads only cam. I think one other person did too. Great results. You may not have 450 rwhp but you also don't have to worry about your springs, pretty much ever.

Very cool to see someone do this type of setup. I'd throw a set of 1.8 rockers on there with the previously mentioned pulley and EWP and it will probably pick up nicely. 400 rwhp in a car that idles like a stocker would make for a badass sleeper!

I love it!! I agree with allngn_c5. You will easily be able to slowly build your way to 400whp as your budget allows.
On the other hand even with a small cam the gains would be MASSIVE!

i think i'll probably end up doing this too, cause i'm out of money and like my gas mileage and don't want to ever change springs, i'll be using AFR heads with 1.8 rockers though, but i'll also only have MAC mid headers. good numbers and good to see it, i bet with a tiny cam that drives like stock, and a pulley you could easily hit 410rwhp or so.

does that have ANYTHING else? man, you still got lots on the table i think, the pacesetter Y sucks ***, a new good one could easily be 5rwhp, port the throttle body and a 85mm MAF and maybe run some royal purple oil, get a under drive pulley, you may even hit 400rwhp with what you have there.

I think the rockers are the best idea. Probably the most bang for the buck at this point because it will make the stock cam think it is bigger. Then a cutout if you don't have one. Then the ported TB and the EWP. IMO
