alright guys. I have H/C/I camaro and Im looking into going pro charger. I would like for someone to let me know where I'm lacking. I have a general idea on what Id need to do but just looking for some advice.

Here is what I currently have done to my car.

-243 heads ported 226CC from AI.
-92 MM fast port matched for heads.
-Thunder racing's T-rex V.2
-Thunder Racing Pushrods (7.400)
-dual Patriot Gold Valvesprings and Ti Retainers
-Ls7 lifters
-ported ls6 oil pump
-ls2 timing chain.
-42 lbs injectors
-moser 9 with 4.30 gears. ( i know ill have to change em)
-ram hd clutch
- hawks stage two trans rebuild kit.
-walbro fuel pump in the back.

I know ill be able to reuse the heads and intake. but not the cam however Ive seen a video of a GTO with a trex cam and pro charger. Ehhh
I know the injectors I might need to replace. and gears in the rear. is there anything I'm missing

Thanksk for the advice.

Cam, injectors, gears, fuel pump. Clutch might have to go also. You could get away with the can just fine. But then it becomes a point of how much are you leaving on the table, and you are settling with a poor idle when you can make phenomenal power on a good street cam.

whats wrong with my clutch? rated up too 650-700 hp and it has less than 5k on it?

Is my fuel pump not enough, should I run two of them?

" You could get away with the can just fine"?????????

What kind of FI are we talking?

How much power do you want to make?

What fuel are you going to use?

Is this a fun car, or something you drive alot?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^He said procharger in the OP.

OP, id get you some 80lb injectors(in case you'd like E85 for a mild FI build), and ditch the cam, for something more apprporiate... However, if it was ME, id just get some bigger injectors and let her eat... I aint skurred....

Also, a lot of people dont care for the bolt together intakes with boost... i'd sell it, and grab you and ls6 intake, put the extra cash toward your FI goals.

LMAO,

My opinion you'll get the biggest get improvement per dollar spent(or even not spent) by selling your intake, can, injectors, trans, might as well sell now instead of blowing it afew months then wanna switch to auto then most likely.I 'd sell intake too depending on deal, especially if they had good stock 243s. With that money you could probably fund your whole swap if you got used parts and where turning all the wrenchs

I would swap out the cam and intake, add another 255 walbro in the tank, and go for some 80# injectors. Add a methanol kit to your list as well. Other than that your list looks fine to me. Feed her 10# of boost and let it eat.

Have the heads been milled at all? The stock chambers are already small putting your compression a little high for boost. If they're milled, you probably shouldn't use them.
