If your doing nitrous I would do pi head and intake swap on your car.

Because by swapping to PI heads on. Non PI motor you actually raise your CR some

I have never understood why people dp the PI swaps, they raise the compression ratio, and there are better options out there.

Take a look at Airflow Research. They put in a set of there heads in a stock '95 GT and had gains of +40 rwhp, and +40 rwt

Also, for cams, I recomend custom grinds. Or check out Cushman Motorsports.

Probably because not many companie make heads for a mod motor and company that do are very expensive. A 95 is a 302

PI swaps can add 60 rwhp if tuned right.

It bumps the CR up by like ~.5

9.2 up to 10.7

i did the math when i did my swap, from what ive heard pi swaps love nitrous too

full bolt on pi swap with decent cams and longtubes back should be right around 300rwhp

i know pi swaps raise compresion but i dont know what a better and cheaper option would be there going to make the same numbers

personally, i wouldnt do the 270 cams unless you notch the pistons.

joshb 10-06-2012 09:09 AM

ive heard its between the 262 for street or the 270 the 270 is more mild sips more gas but its worth it can anyone give me a definite answer on how much it would be do a "head swap" ive heard and read anywhere from 500 to 2000 dollars

how much rwhp do u guys think a PI 4.6 with p&p heads and a 262 or 270 cam with minor bolt ons will make
