***chiming in*** [Big Grin]

i did it to my 97GT...i just used the stock pi cams tho didnt have the $$ for some comp cams. the gains were INSANE..a ton of power was added..after 3K rpms..it pulls soo much harder. well i also had 4.10s in the rear...so that helped a lot too. if you want to know what you will be needing jus PM me

We installed some CNC ported PI heads & compcams in a customers 97GT. We had to notch pistons, but the motor picked up a ton of power.

Dyno before was 210RHWP
Dyno after w/JeffS tune was 284RWHP
