RE: X303 cam in stock motor? will it work
but only got 100 bucks? but i mean if i did the cam swap now and intake swap in like 3-4 weeks would this be the way to go.. or should i buy the intake first? either way ill have both in 4 weeks.. i figured ican do the tune up and cam now and drive it then in a few weeks get a intake on it.. and what intake would you guys use for a stock motor with full exhust? i plan on next winter having better heads and full bolt on's., with maybe bigger injectors

change your fuelfilter, and check fuel pressure i doubt your cams goin out. do a tune up, plugs ,wires, button, cap, etc. as far as perf
ormance save a little moremoney and change gearsyou'll get the most bang for the buck, swap the gears at school i'm sure your teach is capable and it's a whole lot cheaper

You're going to have to buy a lot more than the cam if you do decide to do the cam swap. Things such as:
cam
oil
coolant
gasket set
possible things that might break (such as bolts)
it all adds up. That stuff right there is going to be over $100 garunteed. Plus while you are in there doing the cam swap and taking stuff apart you will want to replace your timing chain and gears, lifters, etc.

You don't need to change the lifters in a roller setup, and you'll want to check the slack in the chain before dropping money on a new one. You want advice? Bump your timing, remove the air silencer, K&N drop in filter, save your money for gears that was mentioned, and worry about what cam you should run when you decide what heads/intake setup you'll run as well as if your staying N/A or going forced induction.
