upgrade the headunit... D1 or bust!! Sounds like a good starting point, the LPE cams seem to make good power and have pretty good drivability so thats always a perk. As for lifters, I have a set of Comp 850s that I need to get rid of!! Rocker arms aren't going to help you breathe any better, I honestly wouldn't worry about them unless you just really want to.

i would leave the rocker arms alone, and the lifters, unless your engine is a high mileage one...

smaller pulley = 6-8 rwhp.. if thats worth $200+ or whatever they cost, then have at it?

only way to check PR length is to buy a length checker, and check with the cam installed, as far as i know. generally, a 7.400 will work fine.

stock retainers will also work fine, unless you plan on revving high a lot.. plenty of stock retainers have seen 6400 rpms or more.. titaniums are superior though, for sure.

read my thread about the TBSS intake mani, i still am not sure if its going to gain you much.. you may want to send it out to be ported before installing it, for a few extra hundred.. it may be well worth it. (porting)

good luck on the build.

I think he was talking about a smaller blower pulley... that should be worth more than 6-8 hp

i would do the D1 eventually but i wan to do internals first which is down the road. as for the rocker arm i jus wanted to do it all at one and get it over with.. how much for the 850's? thanks for the response....

ss04flores

i know the tbss mani wont gain me much but i want those extra hp and i do plan on porting it out just dont know how much yet. tanks for the response helped out alot.. oh and yes i was talking about the blower pulley lol
