Hello, what do you think of my system?
Okay im within about a week of buying the following off an internet site for my 98 z28 ( just bought it a month ago).
SLP cold air intake
Borla Exhaust
CNC Cam shafts
and im also going to get some headers im not sure what kinda.
do you think with those 3 items and the "freemods" off of ls1.com i should have over 335 HP?

Should be close, depending on what the cam is.
I don't believe I've ever heard of a CNC camshaft.
And, for whatever it's worth, you're only going to need one per LS1 motor.

With a decent cam and some good headers you should see 335 at the wheels easily, IMO. My car is at 331 without a cam or the LS6 intake (both waiting to go in, BTW)! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Should be easy...I would think.

With longtubes it would be easy, but when he said "with those 3 items," I think he meant the first three, the three that he's already purchasing.

much thanks for the advice, by the way the CNC cams are bullshit, its a scam =-/ . Okay so now im thinking about crossing out CNC and making room for ls6 intake =-).. it seems like everyone that is someone has them i guess it must really help. Anyway now i think my system is going to be mainly for helping the camaro breathe a little better. does anyone know anything about ECUs? i had an import (sc400) put a new ECU and got 38 HP... im not sure if thats how domestics work.
sorry ahead for anything that might have sounded wrong, i sell lights not cars. ( dont flame me please)

Either way it's just a computer. The PCM has reprogrammable "EEPROM" memory so you don't have to change the PCM, just reprogram it. LS1edit is a popular software tool for doing this but you have to know what you are doing. Some speed shops will do it for you for $450 or so. You won't neet to reprogram the PCM unless you stuff a big azz cam in your LS1 or change the rear end gears.
