Alright, car is getting paid OFF this month.. I am leaning toward the Torquer v3 or 228r and its cam only route for now.
Same setup from post #10
Of course I'll be upgrading the chain, pump, etc.
With full tune for now, what no.'s might I be looking at?

Darkhorse give us a call to discuss options with the PRC Stage 2.5 5.3l head. We can custom mill & setup the heads specific to the camshaft you select. I personally like either the Torquer 3 or the 228R camshaft for the power goals we're discussing. Either one can make great power with the 5.3l heads.
Not to mention they're also on special!!!

Cause i can tell you this after you start modding that car up ***** about to start breaking. Ive gone through 3 clutches, 3 slaves, 2 masters, 2 tq arm mounts, 2 drive shafts, 1 transmission, 2 axle bearings. & If you dont know how to work on your car to begin with your diggin a hole for your self. Good luck bro!!!!!!
so true.

yup most definitely!!! I'm learning and already went through a clutch swap about 2 weeks ago. My buddy will be educating me on the heads & cam installation. He did his OWN work in his 01 formula.
It's sweet working on your own car

I'm a complete newb when it comes to h/c specs and I wanted some opinions on what my options are..
I want to reach 425-450 rwhp in my camaro and I want a street driveable setup. It won't be a DD but I ain't building it to track it either. I want to maintain good gas mileage, etc. with this setup as well. I been reviewing the stickies/threads whenever I get some time but I'm still
Well I'm trying understand but it's gonna take more researching
. My project won't begin until Mar/Apr 09
Thanks guys!

AFR 205 milled to 59cc and a cam in the 224-228 duration should do just fine. Big cams give up bottom end torque and Hp in order to make a useless in a street car peak number. Stay with a medium sized cam and good velocity heads for your best street results. AFR's are still one of the best heads on the market. Do some reading about velocity.
We' have AFR 205's and a cam for $2550 right now
Here is a good read
