What Stealth intake? That's a product line, not an individual model.

What gears? Auto or stick? If auto, what converter? What exhaust? Anything done to those heads?

Got any specific goals, either ET or HP or whatever? What are we trying to accomplish here?

Dop you care about gas mileage? What about emissions?

All of these things influence the cam choice.

sorry i was kinda out of it when i wrote that

as far as i knew the weiland stealth intake was just one intake not a line of them

3.73 earend gears, would like to leave those in

t-5 five speed at the moment, will have a t-56 in a couple years

as far as i am planning it will be the hooker comp headers and hooker cat back

as far as i know heads are stock

my goal for the car is to have a powerful, fun, yet reasonable driver car, with a few blasts down the track once in a great while

i live in montana, i have very little if any concerns about emissions
