i would go FAST 90/90. Pass on the Elec. Water Pump and SLP MAF, IMO...

i would go with fast intake but i think its not strong enough and i know about the heat transfer but the block is all aluminum plus it looks nicer. i love the color of chrome. with the underdrive the eletric water pump will keep it cool. but what cam will be the best

actually the composite is better resistant to the heat transfer than the alum. intakes like the weiland and BBK are. they heat soak and that means you lose power. try this: go out and drive the car and place your hand on top of the compostie intake, then go ride with someone, stop and try to put your hand on that alum. intake...there's your heat transfer answer right there...

not sure where you got your info from, but i can tell you that the FAST intakes are proven strong and reliable intakes...

as for a cam, and not knowing if your car is a DD or not, i would go with a TSP Torquer v2...

i kmow the heat transfer sucks on the weiland and bbk intakes so ill look into getting the 90/90 combo from fast, and my car is not a DD, just on the weekend, over the road truck driver, almost never home and wife is scared to drive it. hahaha

im trying to get a car that will be great on the track and some times on the street not a daily driver not enough cash to do a full swap but in the future i will so im thinking of getting all the parts and put it on a stock bottom but will switch later, i read that eletric WP is good for the track between passes, plus im looking into a FAST 90/90 a set of AFR 225 heads, already have slp lid, LP, y pipe, and LM, so im trying to plan on how much cash i will spend, thats why i have alot of stupid ? but with this setup what cam would be the best, and around how much RWHP should i expect. thanx for all your pacients, plus my spelling suck sorry

well you could go a little bigger than the TSP Toruqer v2 i suggested, you could go the Torquer v3, or even the MS3 cam. with supporting cam swap mods, mods you have and the mods you plan to do, i would say well between the 440-460rwhp mark and around 400+rwtq...

heads (2200)
cam (400)
supporting cam mods (300)
fast 90/90 (1200)
tune (400-600)
shop fees for install, anyones guess...

Heat transfer is definitely the byproduct of it's design, but despite that though, they're still running the numbers at the track, regardless. If your honestly considering one, I'd say go for it. I'm running a Fast 90/90 setup myself, and I'm not ashamed to admit being beaten plenty of times by those running with a Weiand intake sitting on top of their engines....
