Heads and Cams

drazga97 · May 11th, 2008, 10:44 AM

what is a good site for heads and cams? someone point me in the right direction please.

i have a dilemma. if i sell my dirtbike i will get about 2000-2500 for parts for my car.

Option 1:
-4:10 gears
-H&R lowering springs
-Mach 1 front lip
-Diablosport tuner
-Mac O/R H
-a catback (im not sure i need to do more research on what sound combination im looking for)
-Black bumper inserts
-tint the tail lights and reflectors on the back bumper

Option 2:
-heads and cams

with option 2 i would probably have a faster car but with option 1 my car would look and sound 10 times better.

MPH for cams and heads.

White99stang · May 11th, 2008, 01:21 PM

that and make up your own mind dude, nobody's opinion on here should matter on what you do to your car, your the one that is going to be driving it not us

drazga97 · May 11th, 2008, 01:26 PM

but are heads and cams really worth it over gears and exhaust?

White99stang · May 11th, 2008, 01:32 PM

yes they are worth it

superbeef1000 · May 11th, 2008, 06:01 PM

I searched their website and I can't find there heads?

White99stang · May 11th, 2008, 09:32 PM

well i know why they aren't anymore cause the company that was supposed to be doing them screwed him over with heads, so foxlake heads are great, thats what i have on mine

I had Heads and cams in my car... it ran like a raped ape until i spun my bearing...

But PM boomer. He does some excellent work on heads.

Heads and cams.

ShapeShifter · May 12th, 2008, 08:07 AM

wouldnt he need gears anyway? i mean, heads and cams are a good upgrade, but isnt the car gonna feel like a turd and not move into the powerband quick enough to benefit from heads and cams?

It is kind of funny you said this, I always tell people to build from the ground up. Really why build a motor in a car that can't use it, unless you plan to just have a tiresmoker or a dynoqueen. The car with the most power doesn't always win, the car that puts the most of its power to the ground does.

bigmike83 · May 12th, 2008, 10:00 AM

i say heads and cams because they are gonna cost the most to do up front. you can buy the other stuff sloly and bolt them on as you go

heads and cam ftw

HMUSN · May 12th, 2008, 10:03 AM

+1 on heads and cam.

deedub97GT · May 12th, 2008, 12:51 PM

heads and cams FTW then sell me yoor pi heads and cams for a decent price lol

mystang0673 · May 12th, 2008, 12:55 PM

cms heads and cams... def do heads and cams. they will be out of the way.. then when you get spare money you can do exhaust and gears...

slow02gt · May 12th, 2008, 01:11 PM

haha ok you do heads and cams you will get killed by a bolt on gt with 4:10s.. why dont you just have somebody port your heads and save like a grand and still can get the cams.. no matter what you do 2v heads still suck for flow so i dont really see a reason to spend 1400 bucks on heads unless you are like putting together a bad ass engine in your garage and then just gonna drop it all in.. in a day.. but thats just my opinon.. people can port heads for like 400 bucks

if i do that i will gladly.

Get all of the easy stuff done first. Bolt ons then build your engine. Why put heads and cams in if you're not going to build the lower end. Do it once and do it right.
