I made 399RWHP with untouched heads through an automatic, PT4000 converter, crappy MAC headers and I don't even have all the bolt ons yet!

Darts are prooving to be one of the best "bang for your buck" heads. With $3K to spend, you would be right there with a set of darts, a tr230, 4.10's, and a dyno tune!
I think patiot is having a sale, but I'm not sure.

I have had the TR 230/224 for about a yr plus now, I didn't have any problems even before the tune well except for the SES kight after about a week.
I will agree with others out there about great DD cam, and also about the track. Was seeming like it was falling on its face off the line until i increase the rpm at the line launching at about 4500RPM it shoots out like a rocket...
Excellent cam of choice and make great power in the higher RPM ranges

I have been daily driving the TR230 for close to a year now with no complaints. Tons more torque than stock, went from 310 ft lbs to 375 ft lbs, stock 98 heads. Horsepower went from 292 rear wheel to 382 rear wheel, with supporting bolt ons. Easy daily driver cam with tons of power above 3500, will shatter the tires at 45-50 mph in 2nd! I can't wait to take it to the track to see what it runs, but I must admit I'm curious what 3.73's or 4.10's might be like. Mileage is about 13 in town with my foot in it and it actually increased, maybe due to better exhaust and intake though, to 29-30 on the interstate. Pulls hard to 6800. Mean idle, although I wish my Corsa was louder at idle and not quite as lout at WOT, sounds like an open header drag car!!
