Help me decide on a H/C/I combo!
Help me decide on a H/C/I combo! Well, it's come time for me to order a combo. I know I'll be going with a FAST 92/92 on the intake side but I'm still considering heads and cam. I really like the Polluter/TFS combo. Does anyone else have any ideas for me? My car is a 2000 Camaro w/ a 9" (3.89 gears) and it will be sprayed. Anyone have something that worked well for them in the past or now? Thanks guys.

that is a BIG AZZ cam for a 346...it may not have the best street behavor down low even with gears...but if this is going into mostly a track car that will be bottle fed...it is going to be a BEAST!!!

Thanks for the reply man. Like I said in my PM to you, I just want a street/strip car that'll run 10's on the bottle (not sure if it'd make it all motor, I'm at 5800 ft above sealevel, kinda kills cars on motor). Running 10.5 would be very nice, but for now that's all my goals are on the stock motor. The car is an M6, exhaust is true duals no cats/no mufflers, small resonators, long tubes (pacesetters).

My clutch is good, I have a Monster Stage III, I love it. (We'll see how it holds up under more power and nitrous though). You got great results with a T-Rex, and I've been considering that cam for some time. Any heads you'd recommend with it? Have you tried out any other cams?

I played with the LS6 cam for awhile but a friend bought the T-rex and I didnt want him to be faster so I ordered it too. I built both engines and started them at the same time. It sounded like God was clapping in happiness lol. I have seen the ms3/ms4/cheater/varios other cams in cars around hear and no one is as fast. If you have the money for heads go with either ported AI, TFS, or AFR. I used my small valve patriot 243 and got lucky but there is a lot of power left in bigger heads for me. If you go AFR pay the money to have Tony port the AFR/fast combo.

Well, my boy just offered to sell me some TEA stg 2.5 heads with all Ferrea hardware on 'em for a good deal. Anyone have any cam suggestions? I'll probably go custom if I get these heads, but lets hear whatcha got!

i dont know much about cartek but i have read good things about there 4x 243s. if you are lookin at a stock casting head. The only other 2 choices i would consider is a ms4/tsp 215 or vindicator/tfs 215..i would probably lean toward the ms4 combo if budget is an issue

Pay the extra $ and get a custom grind that will be made to suite YOUR EXACT needs you will be glad you did and also I would call a few diffrent place and just be up front with them about your goals and they will point you in the right direction.
