Winter mods and a spring challenge

[Red514LX]

Well, I think you would pick up at least some power from a change to a Pro-M MAM, long tubes, and a different cam. Usually, with a more agressive cam though, you will make more hp at a higher RPM but you will lose some torque and perhaps some hp at low and mid rpm levels. I dunno if that's a good thing for a street car & street races. Regarding a larger TB...well, who knows?

To be honest with you, when you look at your setup and weigh the hp gain per dollar spent ratio, perhaps you'd be better off saving up for something like a 331c.i. or 347c.i. stroker kit. With a stroker you would definitely want to go w/ something like a Pro-M 77 unit and a different cam obviously. However, I don't think it would be super neccessary to change the throttle body or headers. Your awesome intake coupled with the TFS heads, and a great cam could wake your car up to the tune of another solid 50-75hp.

Or, you could just leave well enough alone. You have a 306/nitrous combo that runs 125mph in the 1/4. That's damn respectable.

I'm curious about the whole tar removal thing though. I've heard a lot of complaints about how road noise is greatly increased from rocks and such hitting the underside, the inside of the car is hotter, etc. In your estimation, is it a good idea to take out all of that material?

FYI...If you don't do the stroker...here's my vote for what mods you should do (and in what order):

1. Long tubes
2. Pro M mass air meter
3. Cam
4. TB
