Default spent $2200 in parts!!!

Yes!!!!! I have just finished coming from Pacifica Performance in Temecula, Ca and I have just finished paying over 2grand in parts.

TFS T/W aluminum heads
R/R 1.6
E303 Cam
Timing chain

I have a headache right now but as soon as I start putting these parts into my car I will be more happier.........I have a 1994 GT with GT40E upper/lower intake manifold, 65mmTB, 70mm maf(cal24lb inj), u/d pullies, unequal lenght shorty headers, flowmasters with 2 1/2 inch pipes, shift kit transgo, CAI, accel wires and plugs, msd ignition coil and some other stuff.

Hey Neg;

Yes I did, I did a lot of research and it was between AFR, TFS or GT40P's, well AFR's too expensive and GT40P's too heavy so I decided TFS with a good deal.....I think. How is your project coming along? make sure you start posting pics of your project, when I'll start on mine I will do the same and hopefully I will have enough money for a tune......and dyno. Good luck with your project and keep us posted.

I have another cam and it is a little more aggressive than the e303 but it is going in into a 67 coupe, I did not wanted a very aggressive cam and I think the e3030 should be good.........maybe for now but we will see later.

still im saying E isnt abad cam but you can still get a better performance cam.

steeda 18 is a good street cam it specs are 220/226 480/480 112 you would want a dual pattern cam

E cam i think is 220/220 .498/.498 110
