you should look into a trans too while you at it.

I have an XP cam setup already at my house. but i was thinking of getting a better cam... not 100% sure yet if i should keep the XP or move on to something with more power.

How does the XP Cam Vs the S1x compare? HP,TQ,MPG

I just got a GEN V. I'm not going to a whipple on this car. this build is centered around the GEN V.

Honestly if your asking those I don't think a cam route is the way you should be going as long as you've been around.

Money is no object for Spartan, for he hath riches of a thousand plunders.

Yet he's worried about mpg's.

Doesnt mean i want to have to fill the ****er up every few days!

but i just read the two threads on the S1X VS XP. Debate..

Midrange vs Top End power................

I kinda wanna get the S1x cam... but seeing as i already at my house uninstalled have the XP cam and supporting springs/chain/retainers i think i should stick with that

So now the question is should i still buy Heads & fuel injectors/rails? or just stick with the I/C, GEN V, & XP Cam, 2.8 Pulley.

I'd skip on the aluminum heads if you have a decent machine shop around you.

I've dealt with a lot of S1X and XP's. They are so close that it really comes down to tune, driver etc. It's nearly the same cam in the end.

If you have an XP and think you might want to go bigger later on, consider keeping your eyes open for rockers. 1.7's are common to see on top, and 1.8's have been done as well. This retains the cam profile that is streetable and yet increases lift etc for more power.
