cam/heads/intake
i have a 1996 camaro z28, i have a lt4 hotcam in it right now, and i was
wondoring what i should do next, i want to start with heads and intake but i
dont know what i should do. i was wondoring of lt4 heads and intake would be
a good idea, if i can even do that with an lt1.

Re: cam/heads/intake
How much rwhp are you trying to get to? What is your budget? The lt4 heads will match up only with the lt4 intake. In my opinion it would be better to have your stock heads ported and to get a cam to match the heads. There are several cams out there better than the lt4, just something to think about while your already redoing the heads

Re: cam/heads/intake
Like stated whats power goal in mind and trying to achieve running that cam? IIRC when they had dynod the full lt4 h/c/i it put down in the area of 350hp/360tq to tires. Stock LT4 heads are not really anything to brag about and if you could pick up a set of LE2 or AI 200cc heads im sure you put another 10-20hp on top of the lt4 heads. Ported intakes do not make up any more power then stock and can hurt you power wise. Run a 52mm tb or port the stock intake opening to accept a 58mm.
