Cam/heads
 
I know that everyone has there own opinion on these two items and would like to get some vendor specific pro's and con's what has worked for some and what hasn't worked for others. As much detail as you possibly can.

most of the sponsors sell good quality stuff. i guess it all comes down to what do u want? budget, all out track..etc..etc..

Vols Fan 02-23-2007 04:01 PM

Talk to Ron@Vengence the have out of this world H/C packages.

SHINER 02-23-2007 05:01 PM

All sponsors are great. I deal with vendors in my area like TSP, and Gforce.

Spdc2000 are GREAT guys aswell.

TFS heads, A big....not HUGE cam, Fast 90, and any old set of LT's along with some tuning is damn near 500rwhp. Things have changed in the last couple of years :drive:

This is correct Vengence racing has a post in the dyno section of an 02 Z28 that made 503 rwhp with these parts an 1.85 roller rockers an upgraded electric waterpump, fuel injectors an fuel pump.

i was looking on texas speed.com and they have PRC CNC ported heads and was wondering if they would go good with that magic stick 4 cam?

Yup prc's with stock sized valves fit with the ms4...its going to be a top end monster though and will idle pretty rough. How much power are you looking for?

Churchill 02-28-2007 01:39 PM

What about just buying one of texas speeds Heads/Cam packages? They're like $1,600 that seems like a good deal any one know about these?

TSP has great stuff so any heads/cam package they sell will produce stout numbers. What H/C package are you looking at? The prc heads right?

Churchill 02-28-2007 01:52 PM

yeah thats what i had my eye on not to hijack the thread but im sure KAGE1LE would like to know too, but what else comes with buying a heads/cam package as far as having them installed are there any other supporting mods needed

KAGE1LE 02-28-2007 09:46 PM

no it's cool ur not hijacking my thread and i was also wodering what lift and all that good jazz i should look for if i were trying to get this car into the 11's or even 10's, but also keep it street drivable

Churchill 02-28-2007 10:09 PM

There are conflicting opinions on fuel injectors but usually with a heads/cam setup its good to go with some svo 30# injectors and a 255 lph fuel pump (inline or in tank). With the cam/heads package you should be getting dual valve springs, hardened pushrods, and titanium retainers. You will also need new head gaskets (if the heads dont come with them) and usually most people upgrade the head bolts. Id also suggest a new timing chain and ported oil pump too.

mcamarols1 03-02-2007 03:44 AM

setup and #s in the sig, some have made more power some less, im in the middle
