![]() Heres my opinion, hope it helps you
![]() ![]() ![]() Well you need to have something to go on, Lets start with the 275 rear wheel Horsepower. Thats about 305 at the motor id say. If you stay with the stock cam you are going to have to make up the power in the heads, You will have to go with aluminum high flow heads $1000-$1300, and a $400 intake, and $250 roller rockers. You also have to have it tuned with more fuel the stock injectors should be fine. Then you might ask what about the push rods and lifters? Well your not running a cam, so the stock pushrods are fine and the lifters. Then you might say man I dont want to chance messing up a head if there $600 each!! Stud mount rockers setups are a bit stronger than pedistal mount. Your not going to run a cam the pedistel mounts will work fine. there easyer too, they just bolt down, but you'll have to see what your heads accept! ![]() ((If you havent done the timming chain you better do it when you have the motor tore down.)) I jsut did all of this to my car, exept i used Iron heads. Heres what you will need: Engine gasket set $100 1.7 Roller rockers $250 Fuel regulator $100 RTV $10 oil / fluids $25 Intake U&L $400 Alum Heads $1000 Timming chain $30 Other expences $100 theres always somethin more you need You should gain 85-105 Horsepower at the motor with this, The dyno will know lol! I would take your motor apart first and inspect the pushrods and lifters, How many miles are on it??? Also you could just spend $1800 and slap a supercharger on!!! Save the hassle and labor and the cusing! lol Just take this all in, I always do when i make a big purchase. I hope this helps you, I used my 140K mile pushrods and lifters on my new setup, they were in great shape!!! Last edited by TMASTER; 06-12-2003 at 08:01 PM.. |
