Heads and Cam Packages?

**Swilerc** · 04-07-2016, 12:55 PM

I have a 2000 Camaro SS with 103,xxx miles looking to do a heads and cam package what would be a great setup. I was looking at the texas performance but I want a setup where I don't need to run race fuel. Then after that what kind of pistons and valves would be a start?

Budget & end goals?

Still want it to have street manners or heavy track duty?

Other supporting mods like suspension, rear end, transmission?

Welcome to the site! Trick Flow has a nice looking package that I have considered from time to time. If I recall, there are three separate setups to choose from.

If I were to do heads, I'd likely go with the ones Jeff mentions or AFR. Check out Brian Tooling Racing (BTR) too.

Trickflow hands down. I have them and can post pics if you want.

Any reviews on the Hawks 515hp kits

Hawks is pretty good but since your in nc, guessing around cherry point based on the zip code I would hit up tick performance in Mt airy or Smallwood performance in mcleansville. Martin Smallwood used to work for tick as their cam and head guy but recently split off and formed his own company. Both are great companies and you can't go wrong with either. You can call them up and they can custom spec whatever you want or you can do one of their standard packages. Havent been to Smallwood shop yet but seen Ticks and they have all sorts of high end stuff coming and going all the time.

Have you heard of majestic motor sports in Hubert,nc

**98TransAmWs-6** · 04-28-2016, 09:05 AM

No I'd use tick performance. They built my 421 stroker and Martin Smallwood designed the cam. I couldn't be happier.
