Here is a dyno test:

(Note they had already installed the GT40 intake. Its important that the intake and heads match, or else you won't see big gains from just installing one or the other)

i used to have a 50 that had all the bolt ons including a 6lb paxton.stock cam. when i siezed the blower and took it off,the car was still pretty fast(nothing like with the blower though)I would think you might lose power with a cam and stock heads.(unless you port them maybe) just throw the heads on with some 1.72's. you'll feel it [Smile]
