Default 350Zurgery

Look at my fun day today. Pulling engine because I spun a rod bearing. I look at the bright side though. I wanted to change my belts and what better way to get to them than like this? A good friend of mine is helping me out so it has not been so bad. He is a car wiz. Well since I do have this apart maybe someone can answer a quick question. How much hp increase will I get from a set of Kelford stage 2 cams?

no one can tell you a certain xx amount of power you will get. Best you can do is see what the company rates it at for power increase and cut that in half and hope you get more than half on the dyno.

You should throw some headers on it as long as its out of the Z.

the price for cams per hp is minimal at best. if you truly want to maximize your cams potentials, look up sgmotorsports setup. truly badass. they probably have the most info on headwork, cam profiles, and camshafts out there, at least from what i've seen.

Thanks for all the info. Dollar per HP on cams only really doesn't look that great. Think I will keep it stock. Thought about headers but they are gonna flow into my stock exhaust so didn't think that would help much. I do have a hacked up pop charger in there so I think I will go CAI and get a couple ponies out of that. I am changing the rear end gears though so that should feel nice.
