quick question...how badly am I going to Strangle this cam.. if i'm using stock manifolds? i have a MAC ory and a TSP Rumbler with the dynomax bullet.. so after the manifolds its pretty unrestricted... i will go to Pacesetters later.. but not for like another 3-4 months...

to my milled 241 heads, ORY and TSP cat back... stock manifolds are going to hold back 60rwhp because i dont have long tubes??? somehow i dont think so..
considering people are seeing 375-400rwhp with this cam, granted they have long tubes.. but i dont think long tubes are going to net me 60rwhp with this cam... my current system puts me at 325rwhp.. and thats just my mods in my sig...
15 extra puts me at 340rwhp.. .. long tubes wont hold THAT much in.. everything else is free flowing.. Not cats, the TSP rumbler is the most free flowing cat back out there...
i would expect to see at least 355-360rwhp(with tuning).. and when i add long tubes..380-390rwhp(with tuning)..
anyone else agree or disagree?

I guess since the motor is out of the car you might as well throw the cam in there, otherwise it would be silly to do a cam before the longtubes.
