RE: horsepower tv 07 gt
Hey Eagle Stroker im new to all this so excuse all the questions but im trying to learn. So you basically added 100 rwhp and 100rtq by upgrading the cams, which cost $2700 for the kit? How much do you think it costs for a shop to put this on for you? I would like some rough estimates because i am thinking about doing something to my engine to give me a lot of power. I was thinking about doing a turbo or s/c, but you bring up a good point about doing it right with cams first. I decided to stop doing little upgrades here and there and save for some real power.

New numbers guys, rotating assembly balanced is selling for 2,200 at http://www.bbandtracing.com/ You have to talk to a shop I couldn't tell you but labor is never cheap. Give em a call they did my car, they'll be able to help you out. And i'm not just talking about cams the 2,200 is your short block aka your crankshaft connecting rods pistons and all your bearings, this is called a stroker kit as it lengthens the stock stroke (rotating of the rod inside the motor around the crankshaft thus moving your piston). The H-beam set with a 4340 crank is the way to go, and if your doing this get their new polish on your kit, ask for Eagle Armor. Picked up better numbers with it, its a polish on the parts that relieves stress in the metal and also reduces friction. Pretty simple stuff. And like I said it's not just cams, I started with a bone stock car, it dyno'd at 264 rwhp. I have all your basic bolt ons, throttle body intake headers x pipe with cats mid pipes and mufflers, and ported and polished the heads with a 3 angle valve job and now i'm at 415 rwhp after some tuning, and the cams aren't fully advanced (running at their full potential) because the way it is now I can still add a power adder such as a s/c or tt set up with out having to go in and retard the cams. But if your serious about numbers, this is the only way to go in my eyes when it comes to a 4.6. This kit without the polish is in the Steeda Q635 and it's putting 635 @ the rear wheel. It's impressive by any standards
