Cams AND Headers...

Buy the cams now...Save for headers...Do cams and headers at same time and get a tune...Just so you know for cams your going to want to get a tune...

id go with the hooker lt's. she's gotta breath before you go after the internals and looks are just looks... lt's all the way

you already have an aftermarket mid pipe and cat back, i would get cams. the exhaust flows well, so you can go ahead and put a little more through it. i got the magnaflow o/r x and magnapack cat back, they have done great for me so i made the lt's my last mod. is that price with a tune??? a tune is not a have to thing, but is highly recommended.

I think that you should go with a 270 comp cam or something similar! I will make much more of a difference! but I would definatly do cams first!!

Id got with cams, if you get LT you also have to buy a few more things like O2 extensions and a new mid pipe so get the cams and then get the headers later on. Just my .02

So ....
262's Or 270's?

matrixpuba · June 28th, 2007, 09:50 AM

either will be fine. the 270 cams will require a spring change.

04GTAMPA · June 28th, 2007, 10:35 AM

Can't beat the cams. I would go with 270, gives you more room for future mods...

superbeef1000 · June 28th, 2007, 03:28 PM

what type of power increse can be expected with the comp 270 cams?

2000stangGT · June 28th, 2007, 04:15 PM

with a tune probably around 25-30 rwhp i think

Smoothgrandmama · June 28th, 2007, 10:09 PM
