what are the best performance cams to get, what are the best performance headers to get, and what are the best kind of street tires i should get on stock 20 wheels please help all feedback is appreciated!!

 

Man that's a loaded question, you need to research parts there is always a balancing act that you have to do when you get parts due to parts and quality I always try to get parts that have room to expand on later and I also used to think you get exactly what you pay for but I have found out that is not always the case, lots and lots of research you dont want to buy junk!

 

exactly thats why i wanted yalls opinion on it, figured theres been people out there that have already been doing the same research, and can help me through what they have expirienced

 

i was gonna ask the same questions about the cam and what mods to do while im at it (other then heads) on my 2010 5.3... so ill be paying attention... do you have VVT? only cam i can find period is from a texas something company and its like $450 frickin bucks... read the 220/220 cam is what is proven and recommended but thats all i know... know idea what that even means... lol...

 

Id suggest 1 7/8" longtubes with 3" collectors. Lots of brands just do some research. Lots of people here use pacesetters, arh, kooks, and others just gotta look at price and what youre willing to spend. As for cams you gotta match with your setup and future plans which really takes a lot of research. Maybe this will get you started, just look at peoples sigs of what they got and are running.

 

Texas Speed & Performance. if they sell it its most likely worth the money. they hold the record for stock bottom end ls motor (1/4 mile).

 

Its all up to u! I keep wanting more so I keep going bigger!. Just remeber always match ur cam with the rt converter! Cai lt headers and exhaust r a must. The 220 cam is well proven cam but needs to b matched with a 3000 converter .. any more questions keep doing research this cam question has been answered plenty of times

 

thankyou everyone for your feedback it helps alot!

 

do a cam that goes with your heads/intake/converter/gear choice.

i like the Nitto 420 tires they dont spin as bad as a few brands ive owned.

212/218 is proven.
yank TT3000, circle d 3000-3200, 3:73s an 4:10s are proven.
ARH, Kooks, Pacesetter are proven.

you dont have to have the "best" of everything....a ton of guys are running used parts, cheaper LTs and doing the same thing the "Best" brands are doing.

pick a budget and stay in that range imho. buy once, not twice

 

so you cant run a cam without a torque convertor?
