Have a '99 Z-28 M6, purchased last fall with 40K, 7th Camaro. Has a air lid, '98 ss muffler and ZR1 rims 275 tires. Looking for the spring project. Had idea from earlier posts.

Would like to add:
1. Z06 cam '02
2. Absolute Speed stage 1 Heads
3. MAC Headers, Cats & Y-pipe

Priorities for project:
1. Daily Driver, in winter too. Going for 140K
2. $$$ $2000 project * no tunning
3. HP - Not a all out drag racer, like the power
4. Not arrest me loud, sleeper, please pull up and race <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" />

Qestions:
1. Daily driver or better set-up?
2. All upper end power, regular rubber?
3. 400 HP ford rating, 380rwhp, fast cheap car
4. No drivetrain or engine problems with higher miles someday?
5. Misc parts needed????

 

It will work.

I'd look for true LT and better cats than the MAC Y-Pipe. You could run a bit more cam, say a TR 220/220 114. Problem is both those things may add to the cost.

 

I think you can make 380 easy with those mods. Other parts will be Valvesprings, Timing Chain, Hardened pushrods, retainers, upgrade to '02 Zo6 clutch. Like said above you may want to Look into Hooker LTs. Macs will probably rob about 10HP on this setup. Pick up a dual/dual used for the stealth setup <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
