Hello All,

This past Black Friday I went ahead and got the JDM SuperStock cams with the springs and retainers. Also upgraded to the chromoly retainers and ARP bolts.

My car is a 2012 GT500. It has a 100k Miles on it. Well 98k but close enough. I have literally changed everything on the car, as far as everything that is not engine related. I did put a intake, pulley ect. But nothing internal.

The motor is in top shape and all tests run perfect.

My question is being the miles are high, I am going to replace everything on the top end.

So with the cams, I am doing the Rocker Arm set, the lash adjusters, billet pump gear, and also the camshaft drive kit. I will provide links below so you can all see what exactly I am getting. Do you guys all think that is smart and is there anything I would be missing?

If you're replacing all that anyway, do the flipped passenger side tensioner and HD secondary chains

You may think my question about who's writing your tune is irrelevant, but let me assure you it is not. Entertain me and you will understand exactly where I'm going with this...
