Get a rebuild kit from Northern Auto Parts. Or talk to your machine shop(mine was able to get prices better than anywhere else, with equal to or better parts).

Re: performance setup idea
Two questions. Are you putting in new gears or are you putting in a posi with new gears? And how are you going to route your "true' CAI? You getting the stock 2.8/TPI intake?

Re: performance setup idea
you cant use the TPI intake that was on the camaros. Hood clearance wont allow it. this was talked about a while back.

Re: performance setup idea
if money isnt an issue, go for it. personally i think thats all youre paying for. you can make one for a heck of a lot cheaper. do a search for it, youll find many people who have made them before, just as effective, 1/4 the price.

Re: performance setup idea
I'd say you're wasting your time with that cam. Try the 250801. And since you have a '730 ecm you can tune it without an ecm swap. A willems burner is just $40.
