price

I believe it was the $689.00 kit.
The scariest part of doing this package was?
My car only has 392 miles on it. I live in Iowa,
have had it since Dec. and refuse to drive it
on salty roads. But NOW, I hardly see my wife.

heads

Nope, you put (2) 5/16 dowel rods in to keep lifters in place.
I was surprised too, this my first new school cam swap, I can't even remember how many cams I've put in, but on the new stuff, really
not bad, GM has a bullitin on changing cam, so don't be scared.

Nice gains, Jim! Enjoy the new power!!

What Lsa and what springs were used in this kit?

I was being sarcastic as well....lmao...thought it was entertaining to see TSP ask if you were ready for the Heads when you haven't hardly had the car back yet...lmao

You gotta enjoy your power for at least what, another good couple weeks first right?? lol

Was alittle worried, with the cam, exhaust,cai and tune.
All GREEN check marks.
Was expecting a DANGER<DANGER, but it is all good.

How is the driveability? If you had to say something negative what would it be. I'm trying to decide between your cam and the middle one

NICE!!!! Shit yeah man. I cannot wait to start getting it on with mine already. That's good stuff to know. I'd assume the tune would make it look like the car was savvy.
