Time for everything to come together, new cam?
Time for everything to come together, new cam?
Hi!
I haven't posted in while, except my post on clutches. I finally got the money for some more goodies. I was thinking about completing my exhaust (3 inch Flowmaster), because i still have stock manifold and cat. I just found out the Edelbrock TBI headers are not 3 inch, so I figure I should get the TPI ones, right? I need all this to be emmisions legal. I got an open element, with NO breather (would that alone fail me?). My smog test is in November. I want to put a new cam in as well. Later on this year, probably Vortec L31 heads (any comments on that?). I'm getting a new clutch and also fixing the rear end up, with 3.73 gears and posi. I got 3.08 right now, but the guy said I'll have to change carriers? Any other things I should get?
Thanks,
Ethan
