what should I get headers or Cam?
If I only have money for a CAM or Headers, what should I go with and which type should I get?

Headers. How much are you looking to spend? Pacesetters are good headers for the money.

Lt headers are absolutely necessary for a cammed ls1 so get those first. I have pacesetters and the car sounds great. get the ceramic coated unless you can afford some stainless steel headers.

If you don't get exhaust any benefits you would get from another mod such as cam will be limited by the engine's inability to breath.
I would also suggest if you were to change cams do the cam, heads, and intake all at once so that they will match and you can get the most out of them all. Unfortunately, that is a very expensive thing to do

You can try any of the sponsors. SLP or Thunder Racing. I used Texas Speed & Performance. Pacesetters and good and inexpensive. That's what most of us are using.

I would also suggest checking your local muffler shops. You would be surprised how cheap a custom setup can be.

It's more for sound, TD's are TD's. All I know is that it was shaking the building @ LG Motorsports yesterday. Originally Posted by M-Ten
