Default How much $

I'm thinking a TREX or a Magic Stick. This is still gonna be daily driven on stock heads. I'm wondering how much $ am I looking at for new pushrods, oil pump, timing chain, etc...

What all exactly should I replace with a large cam install and how much is just the parts gonna cost me?

Also, is there any reason I shouldn't get a large cam if I'm going to be spraying the car with a 100 dry shot?

Anyone recommendations on any cam will be fine. What kind of lift, duration, what LSA should I get? I'm looking for a 50-60rwhp gain and a nice big lope.

Thanks.

i would stick with a futral 13 or 14 for a daily driver then put the go-go juice. between the 2 you listed i like the trex personally, any of those big cams i would get a double roller timing chain, hardened pushrods, ls6 oil pump, double valve spring kit(tea or prc) for starters...

i think double rollers are overkill. i used to think they were good ideas but the LS2 chains are holding up well.

and jermzz nailed it, the search would have answered your question. hell....check a sponsor's website
