[QUOTE="tmhutch, post: 11594082, member: 4434"] As with anything, it's all a matter of opinion. I figure it this way, if you're lucky you'll pick up about 50 rwhp with all the bolt ons if everything is done right. That's long tube headers ($750 for cheapo's and over $1000 for good ones), cat delete, catback, tune, cold air intake and ported intake manifold. That's about $2500 to $3000 if you do all the labor yourself. A set of cams without springs in the 220 - 230 duration range pick up 40 - 50 rwhp on the typical stock engine with decent exhaust. Cams are by far the most expensive mod if paying to install and in line with a nice set of headers if the cams are self installed. People have a hard time grasping this but they're about the best bang for the buck on a stock engine. They make almost as much power as all other mods combined and cost about half as much. It's just a lot to spend on a single modification. To the OP, if you want to keep cost down, go for cams (like the 106100) with lower lift that dont require springs. You'll still get a nice lope. If you want more lope, install them at 108 ICL. As suggested earlier, contact Nick at MHS, he can set you up with exactly what you're looking for. [/QUOTE]
