Default Need your opinions!

I am a bit stuck on my next move with the car. Right now I have the IRS Stage 2 heads with a 215/221 114 Comp Cam. The car makes good power. 399.3 hp w/ 424 torque through the converter
I just added a BBK 80MM throttle body (yes, I know people say it is a waste but I managed to get a brand new one for $250 shipped so I couldn't pass it up). Anyways, I am trying to figure out what I should do next. The car runs strong for such a small cam so I will probably leave that alone for now. I am thinking about stepping up to some long tube headers. Does anyone have any pro's/ con's on the Dynatech's? Also going to start tuning the car soon with the LS1 edit. Any suggestions there?

I haven't really heard anything about the Dynatech's, but I can say that I love the Hooker LT's I've got on my car and that I picked up enough over the Mac's to make it worth the investment.

Tuning would be of definite benefit as would a little shot of gas (just 75 or so <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> )

Good luck! Thanks again for letting me donate to the car show. It was a great cause!

David

Thanks David. I appreciate the donation that you gave and also for your opinion. I am looking for ways to boost the power without having to resort to the gas just yet. I have heard mixed reviews about the Hooker so I will look into that a bit more. I was just curious about the Dynatech's because they are very inexpensive. The only problem with that is I would have to make my own y-pipe.
