I PURCHASED A 350 TPI MASS AIR FLOW FOR MY 68 CAMARO.I PLAN TO REBUILD & UPGRADE THE CAM & THE HEADS.ANY INPUT FOR ME AND HOW CAN FIND THE HP RATING ON MY ENGINE!!!! THANKS

 

YOU DON'T HAVE TO YELL!!!!!! kewl beans.... nice lt4 hot cam should do the trick....

 

PAINLESS TELL'S ME YOU CAN NOT CHANGE THE CAM AND THE COMPUTER WILL WORK OK!!!! I KNOW THE OLD SCHOOL NOT THE TPI.

 

first off, what year TPI is it.
most cams do require a prom change.
but your in luck because the maf system will give you more oppions to chose from. check out some of the comp compatible cams from comp and crane too.

 

THE CAR WAS A 1986,THE ENGINE NOT SURE.THE ENGINE IS A MAF I WAS TOLD THE PAINLESS SYSTEM WOULD BE EASY THEN THE STOCK COMPUTER!!!

 

if you mean to get a dif computer, dont.

get a chip burned or buy a jet chip.
i looked at some cams that will work with the stock computer. and heres what i got.

comp cams:
XE256H---intake/exhaust 212/218 dur .449/456 lift 112 LSA
good for 1200-5200 rpms (i recomend this one)
-
XE262H--- 218/224 dur. .464/.470 114LSA (this would be nice with diff runners and Base w/full exhaust, if your willing to do all that.)
NOTE: THESE ARE FLAT HYD. CAMS FOR 86 AND EARLIER MOTORS. IF YOU HAVE A 87 AND LATER MOTOR YOU WILL NEED A ROLLER CAM.

 

I thought there were no 86 350 TPI cars. Didnt the 350 TPI make its first appearance in 87?

 

yea in irocs they did but the vette had the 350 tpi sence day one. he needs to see what hes got first.

 

MY PLAN WAS TO UPGRADE THE RUNNERS AND THE BASE,THE HEADS AND THE CAM.WHAT DO YOU GUYS THING. BUT FIRST I NEED TO REMOVE THE ENGINE FROM THE CAR TO SEE WHAT YEAR. THANKS FOR ALL THE HELP I NEED IT.

 

Stop using caps please.

 

If it is from an 86 then chances are it is a 305 TPI.

Runners intake manifold heads and cam would make a huge difference.

 

sorry about the caps.
