Default heads and cams?

other than gears what is the best performance mod for a 98 gt. it has a manual trans and a flowmaster exhaust system. i was thinking heads and cams but heard it is not worth it for the power gains

Default RE: heads and cams?

Not worth it for the power gains??? whAT?

Besides forced induction or nitrous, heads/cam/intake is one of the best things that you can do to an NPI motor.

You could buy a used PI intake/cams and get 35 hp easily. Get some PI heads with the intake and cams and you're looking at 45. Get those heads ported and polished and spring for an aftermarket cam, you're lookin at even more.

Heads and cams are a great idea!! Intake manifold too!
