Default New Heads n Cam?

I have an 02 camaro SS with pacesetter longtubes and an SLP performance intake...Thinking of putting a set of trick flow 64cc heads and a trick flow cam under the hood...Would it be worth the time and money?

LOL.

Well, if your happy with the power you have now than no, its not worth it at all.

What you need to do is look at the CAM GUIDE sticky in the yellow section of this Gen 3 internal engine thread section and do some homework.

You also need to post the full list of camshaft specs so we know WTF your talking about so we can give you an honest answer.

"worth" is up to you.

A proper Heads Cam package usually gains 70+ rwhp and runs 11's.
