Im getting ready to do a pi swap on my 98gt and was going to get a cam while i was doing the swap. I dont no what kind of cam i should get any suggestions. Also with the full pi swap and cam what kind of gains should i see.

 

I myself am about to purchase a set of camS. Our motors our sohc(single overhead cam motors) and since there are two heads, we need 2 cams. I would suggest a vt stage 1 cam package for you if you have no plans on doing anything to the car after the cams. If you plan on growing with the car, get some vt n/a stage 2 cams. But with those, you need upgraged valve springs and a tune. With the pi swap and cams if you have full bolt-ons you could see around 300rwhp possibly.

 

i agree with 03sonicgt...full swap and bolts ons possibly 300rwhp...cam wise: stage 1's if youre done with the car and stage II's if you want to leave room for growing...if you ever plan on going F/I i would hold out on the cams though!

 

you can always get blower cams.... if you do go f/i

 

any1 else

 

if you get stage 1's do you have to change the springs?

 

you dont have to but its cheap insurance... i would IMO

 

You don't have to, but if you have high mileage you might as well. They aren't working like they did new anymore, ya know?

 

cool thanks.

 

heres a question for you along the same lines.

i have a 2003 GT. If i were to put VT N/A stage II cams in my stock heads and had plans for a forged motor/forged internals later on....would I be able to keep the stock heads? (plans to port/polish heads/intake/TB/plenum also included)
