    My honest oppinion..

    Those clubgp rockers are nice. If your doing a cam, they are not needed and the money would be better spent elsewhere. LT1's see 5hp switching over to lightweight roller rockers. So expect to see maybe 4hp from going tot he same ratio roller rocker. Not worth $500.

    I also do not like the idea of a 1.9:1 rocker. :eek:

    I am all for Supersix heads! There is no question or anyone to compare to. Supersix is the way to go here.

    Supersix is also the place to go if you want your upper and lower intakes ported and gasket matched. Will this make you gobs of HP, no. It will add a little and would help with the supersix package but if your looking to save money, here is the place.

    Camshafts... thats a topic all on its own that is very debateable and several topic shave been posted a few weeks ago about the several available cams we have.

    My thoughts as of today.

      just give me a few more months to earn some more money at work to pay for them and i will be more than happy to buy the package from supersix. more than likely it will be in the summertime when my semester at college is finished and i can work more hours at my job.

        Magnus, here is what i have been thinking:

        I don't want to pull the heads off yet. I am keeping this car for a long time, most likely forever, because it's paid for and i love it. So i want whatever i do to be as reliable as possible. I was thinking to have the upper intake manifold polished/ported, and have a cam, along with a stock GTP TB (suggested by Dee in another post). The cam would be the Comp Cams custom, very similar to the supersix but not as aggressive. I would also like to add nitrous after all that, but that is first on my list. Honestly do you think it would be worth it to do all that? I'm going to do it anyway, but just want your opinion. ;)

          Yes, i also will most probably be getting mine in 3 months at the most. i just need to save up and ill have it by then. i think majority of use will.
          Now, how do we do it. we place are orders then he send header that hes work on, then do we give him our stock heads? is that how the cam works to?
          Also on the web site it said for 99 & new car. does he make the for the older ones like 96? [img]graemlins/burnout.gif[/img]

            I dont know if this has been brought up before. Will the jet chip work better with this package than the stock computer?

              I believe a MAF Translator Plus would work better for a Heads/Cam setup than a Jet Chip.

                    As mentioned in my sig ... the SS package is definitely on my list. Hopefully soon, but I want to do the headers at the same time, so I'm looking at $2K easy. Planning at this point to place an order by March.

                        I don't have to go through emission where I live. As is, I suspect that it wouldn't pass emissions b/c it smells like it's running pretty rich. Tuning w/ the maft may help, other wise, a custom program should settle make it emmisions-friendly.

                              what do you mean dont do this? this is what happens when someone does a search and is trying to find out information. if he had come on here and asked "if i get the power pack....." you would have been barking "do a search."

                              or

                              are you saying dont do the power pack?




                              to the person interested in the power pack, i will tell you what happened to it. it is still there, still available and still proven. it just so happened that half these mofos saying they would get it shut up real quick when thier "6 months" "8 months" "summer" came around. it really was all a factor of money. seems nobody could really afford it. talk is cheap and this post proves it. then what made it worse was some dude - i wont tell you his name, but his initials are magnus, says he thinks the intakes really arent worth that much HP and the whole world believes him so they drop SSM like a bad habbit. it turns out that those who did put thier money where thier mouth is had some great runs and great times with thier car, but for some reason or the other, they have all ended up doing engine swaps. go figure.
                              if you ask me, i say get the power pack. the whole power pack - cam/heads/ and intakes. dont be a weenie. you wont be dissapointed. be prepared to spend money. around $3000 for everything. if you dont want to spend 3 large then save yourself some embarrasment and keep your hands closed and dont type "6 months" "8 months" or whatever. if you have any questions about the pack there are afew reputable people here that can answer all of your questions.
                              6s.......under the hood or under the belt, they just dont cut it.

                                Is this different than the Super ix package that is on the website or just the heads. Seems to me jsut save the $1900 and get everything that is on the website rather than the $1500 for the heads. If i am wrong please tell me. But I am also looking at the package after i get headers and a high flow cat. But also being in college I would probably look at a Spring date like May.
