cam and head question

roughly how much for a cam and head install, or just the cam install on a 98 ls1

cost from my local mechanic:

new parts:
lifters
pushrods
oil pump (ls6)
double roller timing chain
TSP torquer cam
all gaskets and bolts

included a dyno tune - $2300

now i already had decent valve springs on there, so he didn't have to do those.

and also...if only a cam swap you don't need to pull the heads...i had him change lifters (requires you to pull the heads on an LS1). so that was more $$ for gaskets and headbolts and labor.

i think his cam only swap with dyno was $1800

thanks

I'm getting a cam installed on June 7th

Parts $2300

Cam
LS6 Intake Manifold
Underdrive Pulley
Oil Pump
Double Roller Timing Chain
Matched Valvetrain components
Fuel Injectors
Spark Plugs

Cam install $450
Tune and other labor $400

Total: $3150

why do you need newinjectors?

stock are fine for a pretty good amount of hp

The shop who is installing my cam recommended the injectors, said i would eventually need them anyway, while they were there they might as well put new injectors and plugs in.

Heads - $1500
Cam - $300
Gaskets, bolts, etc. - $200
Dyno Tune - $400

Putting it all in yourself and having it run - Priceless :D

i guess if you got the extra money, may as well do them since you can get them adjusted for during the tune.

but i'm running a 233 cam and my injectors seem to be doing just fine. right now i can think of better ways to use $500
