so I got a set of trickflow's twisted wedge heads for cheap... I want to also do a cam and intake swap at the same time. What cam and intake do you suggest running? the engine is pretty much stock as of now wit 89k

I was thinkg about the RPMII since I have heard some pretty good stuff about it and the E303 cam, but I have heard there are better cams with bigger gains out there. I basically wnat the most power possible and still staying emissions legal. thanks

I would get a Trick Flow street intake w/ a 65mm t body and run a Trick Flow stage 1 cam w/ 1.7 RRs. You will have a well matched combo that is streetable and smog legal.

If you haven't upgraded your exhaust I would get some shortie headers, an h/x pipe, and a good cat back.

Also, don't forget fuel. Upgrade your fuel pump to a 255lpr (if it is stock) unit and get some 24lb injectors. You will also need a matching MAF and an ajustable fuel regulator.

Slap in some 355 or 373 gears and you are ready to run!

do you think a 255lph is needed? not to much?

You don't really "need" a 255lph pump but if you are going to change out the pump you may as well put in the biggest one you can get. Having a big pump won't negatively affect performance and it will enable future upgrades.

If you have a 190lph or 155lph that should be ok. However, if you are going to buy a new pump then get a 255lph. The price difference is minimal.
