^^^.. Wow someone goet screwed

cams, valves, springs, porting can get expensive my man.

No kidding. Figure at least 750 for just the cams and valve springs. I got a quote for porting at around 800 or so bucks.

Then the valves and all that crap.

Im thinking the way to go is patriot performance's heads. 1295 complete.

When I upgrade my PI heads that's the route I'm going. Unless of course there are some better heads around by then...

RE: PI Heads and intake 96-98 guys

patriot heads ARE PI heads. patriot performance is the name of the company.

casper, also figure into that the price of SCT software and tuning.

porting: $800
cams: $550
springs:$180
valves: $400
swap labor: $700
SCT software/tuning $650

and all the gaskets, bolts, hoses etc i had replaced. plus new plug wires, and 2 hours of labor charges for spending 2 days trying to figure out why #7 injector wouldnt fire. the porting and labor costs also covered cleaning the heads, assembling etc.
