yeah you don’t need much cam at all with this setup. My cam is custom but its very close to stock. The heads I have on it now aren’t anything special. Iron GT-40’s with some exhaust work done. I have a set of High Ports at the machine shop that are getting checked out. If you do some pocket work, and open up your exhaust on your stock heads. I think you will be just fine. Head studs and cometic head gaskets are a good investment. ---

I have 1 intercooler (it didn’t come out of the junkyard 2 inlets single out custom built by vecco in Cleveland) It’s out of the car now so I can make some new piping. But you can run high 10’s with no intercooler so save your cash for now. The 1 G’s are good and pretty easy to find cheap also. I have 2 turboxs rfl’s now but, i think I’m going to run one big single before the MAF. Just kick’n the idea around. ---
