My stage 2.5's came in at 65.8cc.I'm not sure how that happend.
I ran a 233/239 cam..That cam is for sale..I will be running a cam somewhere between an Ms3 & MS4 custom grind..For an off the shelf cam..MS4' work really well..You need 4.10s & a competent tuner to make it work.
I have a friend that runs an MS4 in his CETA..I works really well with his LS6 long block.

- camshaft - $380 (TSP) / $450 (Hellion)
- hardened pushrods, double valve springs (seats, seals included), titanium retainers - $380
- timing chain - $36 / $130
- ported ls6 oil pimp - $140
- new gaskets - $50
- dyno tune - $275
- fuel injectors - $300
- fuel pump - $100
[Note: my numbers may be a little off as these are just estimates from one LS1TECH sponsor]
However if I go with heads and cam install then I may want to stick with all Texas Speed parts so that they can cut me a great deal (looking at about $2700+ in parts w/out install).

tuning (SD) Does anyone know if New Era does Speed Density (SD) tunes? I know they have HP Tuners software and a tune is $275, but can they do SD?
There is also a place called Eksten (sp?) Autoworks in Rochester, NY that tunes F-Bodies. Anybody had any experience with their tuning? Do they do SD tuning?
How about Kennedy's in Rochester, NY (or near Rochester, I can't remember off the top of my head). Any experience with a tune from them? Do they do SD tuning?
Any other places around Rochester, NY and the surrounding areas that I haven't mentioned above? Thanks guys.

fuel system upgrades Also what sized injectors would be ideal for this heads/cam buildup? I have seen people run 42lb. injectors, but will 30lb. injectors be fine? This will tack on another $300-$400 to the total price. Damn it just keeps adding up. Also factor in another $100 for a Walbro 255lph Fuel Pump. Should I get this set-up: http://www.texas-speed.com/shop/item...d=682&catid=10 or just the pump itself. The voltage increasing wiring harness is $100 more. Is it worth it?

rev limiter What should the new rev limiter be set at with either the TSP XS Series 233/239, TSP Magic Stick 3 237/242, or the New Era Performance Hellion Cam 244/248. Thanks.
