Cam/springs/retainers were $550, misc gaskets and oil/coolant for the installation probably totaled about $75-$100, then the long tubes were used for $125 shipped. not bad at all.

Yeah they just had to cut off the cats and weld the flanges a little farther back to match up with the LTs

Ah so you're O/R now?

This is why I'm sticking to the visual stuff for now, I'm in school and not getting over 40 hours a week at work, and my insurance is 200 a month, so there's no way I can afford the Performance stuff ha

One of the best sounding sixxers I have heard, besides mysteeds, his sounds NICE. Your cam is huge, 108 lsa wow, might be a little too much cam, but it sure does sound SWEET.

Thanks! I definitely love it! Maybe with boost it will be just enough cam

I wish I could get a better idea of how it actually sounds on camera. My digital camera doesn't seem to pick up the deep growl of the exhaust. It kinda sounds like an OLD 289 with a decent cam. It's amazing
