Ok, I've bounced around with so many ideas now that I'm a tad bit hesitant on buying anything. In all honesty, Im afraid that I'm going to spend the money for the heads and cam and not notice a differance. 50 horses or so, is it that noticeable? Will it take my 1/4 times down at all? Its a lot of money, and I'm afraid of no improvement. Thoughts?

you'll DEFINITELY notice 50 horses, you'll be amazed at the difference

50 horses wil put you in the 13's & you'll have more fun driving the car anywhere you go..... What's not to like?

Well instead of going that route, run a 100-150 shot, You can get some kids for under 500 Dollars.. Put an inexpensive E cam or something like that and keep the stock e-7's, or have them ported. I did that bassicly, I'm using 351 heads with aftermarket big valves and some porting, and an edelbrock performer kit.
Good luck, i'm sure you'll do something that suits youre fancy

Edlebrock Performer RPM heads
Crane Energizer roller rockers (1.6)
ARP head bolts
Trick Flow gasket set
E303 cam
Fel Pro timing cover gasket
Fel Pro oil pan gasket.

All from Summit Racing. With tax just a couple bucks shy of 1700. Is that everything I would need for a cam/head swap?

whats the intake valve size on thoes heads? and if u get a better cam your going to have more like 60-80hp

anthonydalrymple

Ummmm.... No thanks! I'm a bachelor whom likes maken 'em fer free!

Okay.... I'll admit that it probably cost'd me a couple dinners & a movie or two...

Intake runner volume is 170cc exhaust is 60cc. valve size is 2.020 and 1.600. Can I run that combo on the stock injectors/manifold/Tb/MAF/etc?

you will definetly want to increase the size of you mas air meter.

it would be wise to upgrade the intake and throttle body too, but that can come later if you like.

19lb injectors is pushing it for h/c/i and it would be safer to run 24lb injectors along with a bigger fuel pump. (190-255)
