run some 190cc fast as cast trick flow heads, and while your at it get a proper cam.

302army187 are you running the 190cc? I see you have tfs heads but it doesn't say what size. I'm running a C4 with a 10in TCI converter. What kinda cam you thinking if I added 190cc and some spray on it?

I have regular old 170cc heads that have been worked on just a tad.

You would want to go with a custom cam with the big heads. It would be worth it. Kinda kicking myself a bit, because it would have only cost a tiny bit more then my current set up, and it would be noticeably quicker.

you'll kick yourself in the ***** later if you get an OTS cam with AFR's. AFR's are just a tad better than pro comps. bleh....


get some real heads with a custom cam. 190 twisted wedge fast as cast

I keep getting these suggestions about Jay at Camshaft Innovations. Who has dealt with him and what were the results?
