Just wondering if anyones in the upstate ny region, and willing to help or give a good price on a cam install.

 

too bad I was just there last weekend. Where in NY?

 

upstate massena Malone area..... I wanna cam my car but the garages want 1000$$ to do it not including parts. I need help with choosing a cam also.

 

i was by watertown, I owned a house in carthage

 

you need to be more specific..What kind of car do you have, what are your current mods, what is your goal...do you want it streetable, or a dyno-queen, ???
Do some more reading on this forum. You don't seem knowledgable enough to make that decision....yet....

If you do your homework and spend some time reading this...

....then your cam install is for FREE !!!!

All it takes is one weekend of your work. Be organized, have common sense and don't get frustrated. This article has been proven right hundreds of times. I'm a driving example of that, as are many others

 

yah im about 1 1/2 away not to far.

 

00 z28 auto, pacesetter lt,ory, bbk ssi,slp cold induction kit, bypass,dry shot nos, pcm4less to be tune, and ported/polsihed tb.

 

i want it to be street driveable, but i want some more hp, i havent made it to a dyno yet so im clueless on how much hp im around

 

I edited my post....read it again,....

What you need is 224/228 camshaft at the most to retain streetability. Since you have a nitrous I'd look at Nitrous cam (higher exhaust duration)

Also, higher LSA 114+ (less overlap= excellent for forced iduction)

 

would you reconmend getting new lifters rods, springs and tthe rest of it?

 

You will need valvesprings and pushrods...

This would be perfect for you: (see second package CAMPK-D for $799)

Pick cam 224/227 with LSA 114 (NITROUS CAM), dual springs, and gaskets.... Get some 7.400 pushrods and you're game... All parts will be $1000 and free labor if you follow the article I referenced in the previous post

You will easily pick up 30 rwhp from that cam....

 

boy more i read into this the more i get .
is there anythign i can do before running a cam and heads to gain some more hp ? Pulleys but im not sure on which ones, i got all the bolt ons i can get i think

 

Your Choice of Thunder Racing Custom Grind Camshaft
what does that mean? Tell them my mods and make me a custom? thank you for taking the time to help me im new to the internal things, i was a truck man so this all is new.

 

Pulley won't give you much...maybe 5 hp at the crank.,...not worth the money unless you REALLY do the whole internal work.

You already got nitrous...I'd get some larger injectors. I'll bet your stock ones are already at 120% efficiency. With cam, you'll top out !

 

what do you think my stock injectors are? What will i gain from them and what do you recomend? haha sorry

 

Yea, if you really wanna get ****, and have specific power curve matched to your appliations then they can custom grind the cam, but you need to know what YOU want. Otherwise get what they already have, and 224/227 114 is what you need for nitrous setup

 

Stock injetors are 28.8 or 27 lbs.... Get some "42 lbs green-top" SVO Injectors. See my sig....That should be perfect for cam and 100 hp nitrous shot. It's not what you gain from larger injectors, as much as WHAT YOU LOSE if you DON"t get larger ones. With high power, you need more fuel, which smaller injectors won't deliver, so you'll lose power !

NOTE: pcmforless tune is crap ! Wanna get good numbers, go with a dyno-tune...especially if you have nitrous.

 

a true dyno tune is better? And what if i dont go with a cam would them injectors help me out?

 

Dyno Tune is the best and ONLY way to tune....measures true A/F ratio vs rpms vs hp vs tq.....Mailtune will get you "close" but not close enough...

Man, you gotta do some more reading on Internal and PCM/Diagnostics forums...maybe go to nitorus section and read stickies....you're not ready for a cam project yet

 

ik you just brought that to me haha....I wanna get a tune before i use nos, and i need to delete a few things o2s egr air and a few more can a dyno do all of this? What injectors whould you recommend for the mods i have?
