Heads make any difference???

When you go from a bone stock L03 and just add better heads will there be a power increase or would i have to tune it to get more power.....or would i have to add a better cam to for the more power to go into affect???basically my question is will heads alone result in more power??

yes, heads alone can make more power.

however, the lo3 ecu sucks any you will probobly have to get it reburned

and most people suggest to get a cam and heads at the same time becouse a: a good cam will make you faster and b: the whole thing is gonna be apart anyway, so why not


also, you should of posted this in the tbi section

depends on the kind of head.

keep in mind, the lo3 not only has swirl(garbage)port heads, but also a peanut cam. not to get you down, just letting you know what your in for.
