853 heads question
Ok this is a total noob question but I'm going to ask it anyways..
I have a 99 trans am
Mods include: longtubes, duals, air lid, p&p stock throttle body
Very soon I'm wanting to do a cam swap on this car. I am on a budget so I'd like to get away with leaving the stock 853's (besides pushrods and springs)
I have read others set-ups and with a cam swap and a new intake (which is also in the future plans) people are getting around 400rwhp. Now I would like to make it to the 400hp mark with a cam/intake/tune and after throw a 100shot on it and call it a day.
My question regarding the heads is this: I know that stock 853's don't flow very well and if I'm already at 400rwhp, will I be able to utilize the 100 shot to get me to the 500 mark? Or will the heads not flow good enough to make that happen.
Any help will be appreciated.
