Oh. Um if you're on a budget you could skip them both. delete plates would be good with the cams for sure.I was thinking of buying the Throttle body and a Cmdp to increase the air volume , for the new cams.
That's just it, I have a SCT-3 Tuner and tune from Breenspeed and they don't sell the Hot Rod cams!Also, who are you having tune your car? Doug at bama did a great tune with the cams and has worked with them more lately to further improve tunes for them. The only problem is I really want to add the FRPP throttle body but Doug doesn't seem to want to write a tune for it. I don't even want it to make power I just think it looks good and would go with all the other FRPP parts I've added.
How is the idle compared to stock?If you are getting hot rod or thumpr cams then get your car dyno tuned. For a lot of reasons.
If you want cams with no tune just get NSR cams and forget about the idle. Its a nice idle and good performance and no tune or drivability issues.
This is EXACTLY what I am doing. I'm working on my CMDP's right now and will install 4.10's and Hot Rod cams probably over xmas break...Hot Rods are NSR... They still need a tune though. You'll get better performance gains with 4.10's than you will with a new TB...
So get the Hot Rods, and 4.10's and make your own deletes. Just cut out the butterflies and fill in the holes. Sand down the steel puddy and you're set.
+2 I did my own delete plates, but i went the extra step of porting them to match my heads. rather than $300 (i think) steeda plates i did them myself for around 10 bucks and they're still port matchedHot Rods are NSR...

hhhmmmm...now that DOES sound like a fun project! Do you have a write-up on this? I mean, since I'm already working on my CMDPs then I might as well take that extra step right? :yes+2 I did my own delete plates, but i went the extra step of porting them to match my heads. rather than $300 (i think) steeda plates i did them myself for around 10 bucks and they're still port matched
