head/cam or headers/3.73(4.10)anyone

i was thinkin about doing head/cam to my 94z but i dont wanna drop that much money on it right now, will changing to a 3.73 or 4.10 and slappin on some headers keep me satisfied for now? what kinda prices am i looking at for a decent/driveable head cam set up and header gear change.parts/install. i know all about the search button on here but didnt find anything that answered my questions.also if anyone knows HP/TQ increases from both of these i would appreciate it.
thanks

It all depends on what you want your car to run. If you are looking for low 12's high 11's go with the head and cam and the headers. However, if your just looking to up the performance on your car, you will be pleased with the effect that a set of long tube headers, a nice cat back and a set of 4.10's will do to your car. I have jba midlenght headers and a 4.10 and they really wake the car up. But if you go with that gear, plan on roasting any set of tires you buy short of drag radials.

As it says in my sig I have SLP shorties...I will be swapping them out for a pair of long tubes. I am going to go with Pacesetters. They are very well priced and from what I hear they are made very well. I would suggest them. A set of LT pacesetter headers ceramic coated is $435 and plus a Y-pipe is $560 total. I would just go with the headers and get a custom y-pipe to mach your exhaust...
