TSP MS3 or MS4. MS4 lifts higher & has higher powerband. Both need upgraded valve springs, and you might want to also consider stronger rocker arms & lifters, better oil pump & timing chain.

Both will need tuning.

T-REX here...242/248 608/612 on a 110 LSA. Through a M6 with a 4.10 geared 12 bolt. Never been to the track...just a result of wretched excess. Loads of fun...scares anyone within 1/2 mile when fired

yes your gonna wanna get a new cam. that cam is way to small for a 408. u should talk to someone and have them spec you out a cam. it all depends on what you want outta your setup. but a 224 cam is not gonna be good in a 408

I would let Patrick G spec you out one. You have to take into consideration the weight of the vehicle, converter size, and engine specs like compression, flow numbers for the heads etc. What are your goals with it?? Those are all things Patrick G takes into consideration. Well worth $25 for him to hook you up.
