Do the thunder cam kits come with everything ill need to install and get it and go or is it missing something?? Will stock rockers be good for now?? (ill upgrade to 1.7s later...) THANKS

I'm confused...you have a 1996 Z28, but you're looking at LS1 Camshafts. This leads to another thing...if you DO have a LS1, you already have 1.7 Rocker Arms.

No, i have a 1996 Z28 AND a 1998 Z28.....hehe

Ah ok...yes, those kits are fine, although some people like to upgrade their lifters and rocker arms.

Oh ok....thanks a lot, thats what i wanted to hear =D.....Im looking at the 224/224..but the rated lift is a little lower than id like so i'm thinking 1.7 RRs...

P.S. With this cam will i have to get a tune instantly or can it be driveable for a couple months before i do????

If you want more lift get TSP's 224 cam, it has something like .581 lift, I would leave the factory rockers, which are 1.7's, and on the tune it depends on if your an a4 or m6 and also what LSA you go with.

A4 Ill want 112 for the lower power band .... With that lower duration as well, i wana keep my power band low- mid range....i dont plan on getting a lower gear rear end since im a daily driver....That magic stick cam looks awesome, guys pushing 380-400+ with headers, lid, ORY, and ls6 intake....

If you're looking for a 224R, buy a 228R from Texas Speed and trade me for my 224R (never used)

With the 112 on an A4, you will probably want to go ahead and get a tune. Without a tune it will be a PITA to drive. I would suggest getting a converter as well.

Yeah its going to be Converter/ Headers first (leaving stock cats and exhaust for now...then later Cam/Tune
