oh god no. I was talking about that 224.

T rex has no chance in hell of passing smog.

With that setup you will have to find someone to pass you without even looking at your car.

you think the r-rex will pas smog witha good tune,
no.

id say you best bet is to either try to make a combo that WILL pass the sniffer....
like a mild H/C like i did and made an easy 400rwhp, and passed the sniffer by a good margin...

do a medium sized cam (228etc) and jus tde-tune the car for smog....

or do a wild H/C and jus tswap out the cam every 2 years.

good luck

btw, my cam that passed was a 222/224 .566/.568 114 with 10.6:1 CR S2 heads

Stay away from long tubes! M6Hugger you have a good setup. You can get 400 without going down the LT Header path

just so we all know... (and for your sake if you didnt) what springs are you changing too? are you upgrading your push rods? new retainers?

you're not just going to buy a cam and stab it in are you?

I'm confused.....Do you have high flow cats, or an offroad pipe(no cats)?
