One problem. He doesn't hold the record for most power at the rear wheels cam only. He holds the record for fastest cam only. Two VERY different things.

Lighten up the valvetrain, get a sick tune, and go for some heads and cam. Or just save up a little more money and do things right the first time

Talked to TSP today. They told me to do heads/cam. PRC LS6 heads cnc, Magic stick 237/242 603/609 113. complete setup with headers was 2500.00 said it would give me between 420/450 rwh. Sound good?

Same thing for me
$1k for suspension, another $1k for full exhaust, and a few hundred on suspension parts that help stick my power to the ground
THEN I'll get into a cam and maybe heads. I'm going to have to get a aftermarket rear before the heads tho

It just isn't economical to piecemeal from one part to another. I'd rather do as many as I can at once. Rather than get headers, then cam, then tune, then suspension, then intake, then heads, then tune, I have the money right now to get heads, cam, intake, to complete my exhaust, and to get a tune. If I still have issues with putting the power to the ground (I already have a couple of the suspension mods checked off), I'll address those later. 12 Second Club

not just to be shown around and just say you have 450rwhp..If you are not going to the drag strip you can drive around just fine without all that heavy duty stuff..been there done that...as a matter of fact doin it now..
..not having any problems at all.. ..on the street is usually from a roll ..I spank a lot of butts out on the interstate..it works for me..drive up along side me me sometime and I'll show you what I mean..
