    Question Need Some Advice!!!

    I am looking to get a Heads and Cam package to enhance my current status. I have the Techco Twin Screw, Headers, and complete cat back exhaust. Which heads and cam package would give me the best bang for the buck. All information will be taken into consideration. Any leads on companies to deal with also... Trying to make a wise decision... And I know the information can be provided from all my LX family...

    Thanks in advance,
    Jay

    I would talk to John at Modern Muscle...that's where my setup is from and I'm very happy with the results.

    That sounds like a good idea. They have a good setup in heads porting, TB and Plentum.
    It would also be benifical to contact Stu @ Inertia also. He has Eng. backround and knowledge as to what would work and why. This may help to get the most to the balance of it all.

    Instead of Heads and Cam Package, have you thought of getting a forged short block. Maybe a 392ci/6.4L.

    I'd give CMW a call and talk to them before you commit to anything since they are 'local' for you.

    Heads/cam/huffer=new short block.



    Sorry brudder, your playing with fire if you go there IMO.


    For what you drop on good heads and a cam. Your almost there for a forged bottom end. After that you could pour the boost to her and dial in the tune.
    From wild to extra wild we got you covered with crap ya never knew you needed.

    I agree, either stay stock with the Blower or do a forged rotating assy..you can do that do that for close to teh cost of cam/heads and be able to pick up power by adding more boost and do it safely as well.

    Thanks everyone for the comments.. I guess I will be pumping my brakes until I can afford a forged bottom end... I knew my brothas would steer me in the right place.. Special thanks to CAM, CJR300C, 1FST4DR, & STR8U for the sound advice... So back to the savings...
