Thoughts? Looks like I'd have to use a paper gasket with this one...20 hours left who knows how much it'll get up to.

Sure would look nice under my hood though.

already ported my TB over christmas break. How big of a gain does it really make on a bolt-ons only motor? Not sure if I can do the H/C/I swap as well as motor mounts, trans mount, cutout, and drill mod in 8 days and get it tuned as well. I'm prepared to work day and night though.

8 days as in you have to work at a job too or 8 days of straight car work? I bet you could easily get it done in 8 days working on it after a full day or job working. Go get the cutout welded up first or wait until its tuned.Doing less with more

8 days is way more than enough time for an H/C/I swap. We cammed my buddys goat in his garage in an afternoon from start to finish. Pulling the intake and heads would have added maybe 2-3 more hours to the job.

Yeah of course, parts do get expensive and fast. Have you called comp or any other company for advice on a cam? With the mods you have already and the ones you are picking up this thing should be a nice street machine for sure.sigpic

Sorry for jacking your thread Mike...would you like me to start another one to ask all my questions or should we just stay in here?
And about the cam-I'm going with the one Concept recommended...the "el torro" Found a very nice readup on it on ls1tech...guy's running 10.6's cam-only but I really like it because it makes more under the curve than the bigger cams.
