It all depends on what heads and cams your going with. I would also put LTs on. With LTs Patriot stage 3 heads and some comp cams I would say 300+

I think we all went over this with his last stang, now we get to start over... first exhaust, then rims/tires, what size tires, now heads/cams.... ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif) but thats what we're here for, to help! ![[patriot]](graemlins/patriot.gif)

i would just do the cams, heads and cams are expencive and would be better just to get a blower. A good set of cams will give u about 25-30 hp to the rear.

Just put in a couple of blower cams, in anticipation of your future supercharger. You know you'll get bored of just heads and cam.

The JLT RAI will give you 8-10rwhp and about 15 lbft i think probably more with tune and the other mods.

Just to add a few things. Heads and cams $2k, gaskets, labor, injectors, chip and tune $500 or so, To get the most out of that setup you will need LTs and you will only put down 300rwhp for a price that will be in the$4k-5k. Or by a used superchager that comes with everything for around 2k install it yourself and put out another $500 for the chip and tune and put down close to 400rwhp.

I agree with bunchmyfunky, only you won't need injectors, and $4-5k for a headswap is too high of a figure. You did heads and cam on your old car, how much did it cost. It cost me closer to 2 1/2k myself. But I agree a used supercharger would not be that much more, and would give you way more power.

Actually my price is damn close. Thats including LTs and the mid pipe, chip&tune, H/C, plus all the odds and ends and labor. If your going to do H/C you have to do it right to get the most out of it. I'm fairly sure you will need injectors 19lbrs are rated at 338hp "flywheel"

My bad, I didn't realize you were including LT's and all. Still, the 19#ers will work good on all the power he will ever make with heads and cam. The 19's will work on apps with 300rwhp.
