Best way for +50rwhp?

**Quietchaos** · 04-05-2007, 07:34 PM

I was wondering what yall think the best way for me to get 50rwhp would be w/o affecting reliability/driveablity. I put my SS on a dyo and have 331 as is. Just bought the car so dont know everything it has done to it but it looks like y pipe, headers, slp lid smooth bellows. Nothing else to obvious I would just like to be closer to 400rwhp its a nice round number to reach for.

nitrous

less wear and tear than Head/cam and instant gratification.
Only downside is the instant hit instead of a gradual build like N/A, so the driveline receives more stress...(some ppl dont spray during shifts)

I would do nitrous but it just makes me feal like I spent time with a crack whore behind a dumpster. Its not something I would like to have in common with all the imports in my area. Some people where telling me I should go with a procharger or something on those lines. I like the idea of being all motor but my knowledge is limited about these things.

Just get a cam. Idle will be a little rougher but still easy to drive and wont effect reliability.

What should I look for or wheres a good place to look? I know lots of people sell cams but obviously some are gonna run smoother than others.

you could look into one of the GM hot cams. just go to gmpp.com........or try out texas-speed they're awesome

with a cam your spending most of your money to have it installed, and while your at it replace the valve springs rods, and mabe go with upgraded rockers. and if you realy want to get crazt have the heads pulled ported and polished. i dont know what your money situatio is but I can almost promise you as long as whoever is doing it know what there doing you will be well over 400hp. so i guess i got a little carried away.

o wait I know got to wall mart and auto zone. do your own tint making sure to leave plenty of bubles. put a shitty exaughts on it and throw every sticker that auto zone and wall mart sells on it. that and some fast and the furious seat covers and you should be pushing like 700hp and if you realy want to get crazy get a $30.00 dollar sound system from a crakhead with blown speakers that makes your trunk rattle and your running low 9's at least it works for the ricers( can you guys tell i realy dont like imports)

haha speaking of ricers

one was bragging the other day and he was like this is a 11 second car (everyones heard that claim) So i simply ask you take it to the track? "yes thats where i got the numbers" im all ok ok what kinda helmet you got? hes like helmet? what do i need that for... ahhaha... and then im like... i dont see your car roll caged... How were you running that time at the track ;-)

**adam0321** · 04-05-2007, 10:12 PM

what baracket do they require a roll cage where you are. hear its a helmet period. reguardless of the time. and a five point if you are running below 12.4 then I think 12 and below is full roll cage required. and if you are 10 and under you cant run the dont have enough background to stop. but the point of you story is that the little fag has never been t a track im guessing
