I have a 1985 Camaro Z-28 with an '87 IROC TPI 350. Any suggestions for a complete top end kit. I haven't been able to find any for the TPIs.

 

iam not sure what the question is here.
what type of kit are you looking for. it seems to me like you have two TPI motors.

 

I have a 1985 camaro z-28, the engine in it is a TPI 350 out of an '87 IROC. I'm just looking for a top end kit with heads and a cam.

 

it depends on how much power your looking for. summit sales a trick flow
kit(s). then you also have the holley systemmax kits. the only problem with those kits, is that it doent make a good powerband for a TPI intake.how much are you looking to spend? you might be better off just buying it seperate. if you would like a mild setup some edlbrock performer heads will do fine if you want a little more you can try trick flow or AFR heads. for a good set of either of those it will cost you about 1300-1400. but for a cam from mild to wild check out thunder racing, they have a great selection of cams that work with TPI.

I emailed trick flow and they said they're cams arent computer friendly so they won't really work with the TPI engines. Will the Trick Flow heads by themselves work? I'm willing to spend like $2,000 on everything so I am looking for a good setup with as much power as possible.

 

yea i figured that. there lsa is 110*, not very computer frendly as you stated. but with 2grand.the trick flow's or AFR,(i personaly like AFR)but both or great heads.i think you could also get some edl. performers and use the money you saved to get some roller rockers (1.6s) and a tune(i think you would be better off this way)
then match it with a cam.i gave you a link in a above post to thunderracing. id go with the comp304.

 

so this is a good parts combo than

COMP Cams Computer-Controlled Cam and Lifter Kits: CCA-K08-304-8 - summitracing.com

COMP Cams Pro Magnum Roller Rocker Arms: CCA-1318-16 - summitracing.com

you dont think i should go with a bigger cam? the name says its computer controlled, but when u scroll down it says no next to computer controlled compatible...so is it or isnt it. if its not doesnt that make it like the trick flow one..

 

looks good to me, check these RR out:
Crane Gold Race Extruded Rocker Arm Kits: CRN-10758-16 - summitracing.com
ive heard more about these and there cheaper.
looks good though. iam not sure but you might need different size push rods.
youll have to see once you get it together, dont sweet though they should only be about 100bucks, if you need them.
and what ever you do get it tuned. let me know when you get it together. looks like a nice getup. some times would be nice to.

oh just saw something. the only thing with the cam kit is that it has springs in it, and the heads will come with springs. i will say the kit is good in that you get the lifter and timing chain and all the other goodies. so if you fill safer getting it then go a head. it would pro still be cheaper than buying the things you need seperate. and remeber that you have to buy two heads that price is for one.

 

that cam will work great trust me. i noticed that your a little over your buget, by about $100-200,and that not counting the tune, which should be some where around 250. hope thats ok

 

ok thanks. will the cam sound great too? and any idea how much hp i can get outta this?

 

it depends on what you already have done. i would think after its all tuned somewere around 80-90hp at the fly wheel, but again it depends on what all you have do. it could be more it could be less.

 

i forgot to mention that before i bought the car the guy put a performance chip in it....idk what chip exactly...will this change what cam i should get?

 

no, because you still need to replace it with a custum one.
