you dont need 550 hp to get into the 10s... you can have 350 with the right suspension.. with cams you need heads for them attually perform good.. with cams come a shit loat of labor you gotta pay most people charge like 400 to but them in plus you gotta buy gaskets and all new bolts

A lot of people are going to say go for the "go" before the "show". I went for the show before the go and have no regrets. I would rather drive a sharp looking car everyday than a stock looking one that kicked ass(knowing I would have both someday). it actually kept my interest in my car. fi you are all about the track then go for the cams first,if you care more about the "cruise in's" go for the rims
