I've heard everything from turbo's to nitrous but what are other options in the engine? I've heard of the "secret" cam swap from 95 Grand Am?? I am looking to bump up my HP to weight ratio... My car is and will be a DD for a long time so I dont need anything too drastic but I got a friend with a dodge 3/4 ton with a 12 valve cummins and he says he has 325 rwhp and its a 6500 lb truck.. that puts him at 20:1 for hp.. I haven't weighed my car yet, or know the exact hp.. I know it has intake and exhaust but not 100% on everything else that is done. I'd like to get at least 210 or 220 hp.. 250 would be really nice but i dont think I can get that without alot more mods then I want to do...
I think I should be able to beat him in a race regardless just because hes in a truck but everybody says its fast so I'm gonna take their word for it...
FYI we plan to race september 19 at LEGAL drag races sponsored by local car club if anyone was concerned about that.
that dodge is going to get up and fly compared to you regardless of which engine you have if you have no mods.
but speaking of that how are we supposed to help if you don't even tell us what engine you have? i'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that you have an ld9 since you think you can do the secret cam swap.
either way, please, please, exit this thread. look at the top of the performance page. there's some threads there that never go away. those are called stickies. take some time, read them. there are stickies in each forum, before you post a retarted thread read the stickies or use the search option. chances are your question has been asked a million times already.
