i got a price on cam install from KATECH
i got a price on cam install from KATECH i called katech today to see what a price would be for some work on my car. a tune, cam, spring, rocker install and they said it would take around 2 weeks and be 5,000.00 vector motorsports is gonna give me a call back tomorrow with a quote on it so i can compair. they both are in clinton twp which is where i live so its close by.
There is this place in Madison Heights I saw in a issue of Motor Trend. They did some dyno testing on a Z06 and a Viper. I don't know anything about them but by the looks of the website they do some tuning for LS motors.

$5K seems a little hefty
Given the options you listed (a tune, cam, spring, rocker install) I think they are charging you about twice what they need to. Cam, springs, and rockers should be under 1.5K parts (even with great stuff) . . .then they want 3.5K in labor. . .I don't think so.

If you ever get a chance to do a cam swap on one, we all probably want to see the dyno chart
Which reminds me, wasn't there a thread on here a couple of weeks ago about a cam swap in progress? Hmmmmm, wonder how it turned out?
