question about pi cam and intake swap


hey i just have a couple questions, i have a 98 gt, i also have a set of windsor cams from a 00 and intake from a 03, now what exactly are all the parts i need to swap all this? and how much would i cost to get it installed? i called this 1 place around my house and they said they want a 1000 for it

my ultimate goal is run mid 12's with cams, intake, drag suspension, built auto tranny, and good dyno tune

Well first off get rid of those cams because they have press on cam gears. Youre 98 does not. You need 02-04 cams. Go on ebay i was looking yesterday and saw a set of 03's for cheap money.

I have a certain way of installing cams, so i think 1000 is crazy and i do everythign myself. So i cant be the judge of price.

For the cams you will need PI cam bolts, you can reuse youre spacers from youre cams, valve cover gaskets, front cover gaskets, silicone, PI intake gaskets, nipple o-ring, thermostat o-ring...But if you just give this shop youre PI intake they will install it without knowing it doesnt need silicone and they will start it up and tell you its the wrong intake.

So let them know what the Swap involves.

ok sweet, ill sell the cams i have and get the cams from an 02 - 04 and get pi cam bolts.

now for the intake, i can reuse the front cover gasket, silicone, pi-intake gaskets, nipple o-ring, thermostat o-ring, would i need anything else for the install?

thanks alot!

I dont do the front cover when i do cams. I have a tool so i only need to remove the valve covers. I would suggest if youre doing it youreself. Get new valve cover gaskets, front cover gaskets, PI intake gaskets, the nipple o-ring, thermostat o-ring ( good time to throw a 180 degree in it), silicone for the front cover and valve cover spots, get a new crank seal for the front cover if you want, silicone in the crankshaft pulley. Dont get mad if i leave something out but im trying to think off the top of my head.
