ok im getting a LT1 hotcam kit installed when i have my engine rebuilt 2nd week in may i was wondering if i should get anything else to put in well the engine is open? nothing too expensive. I want to keep the very street cause its a daily driver and i want it to last a long time.

 

I can't think of anything, except maybe a better timing set if it's stock now.

Do you have headers?

Dan

 

New pushrods, lifters, and maybe a mild port and polish.

 

Oh yeah, forgot about the lifters. Many reuse the stock ones, but better safe than sorry.

Did '95's come with hardened pushrods from the factory?

Dan

 

nah no headers but another $500 is a little steap for right now i plan on doing them shortly after the rebuild

 

what kind of lifters should i get and from where?

 

get the headers as soon as possible. you will not see the full potential until you do. it is a night and day difference.

 

will the shorty headers be good enough for a CC306 cam

 

Comp 875-16 lifters... Can get them from any speed shop.

Is your motor just getting a stock rebuild?

 

I also heard that a home port and polish will help quite a bit, i'm getting closer to doing my cam and port and polish with headers, just need the headers but not sure if the shortys will be good enough


CC306,1.6RR's, 2800 stall,4.10's , headers & shift kit soon.
I finished the nitrous install 2 days ago, what a difference, like a hard passing gear and then some!!! almost makes me change my mind about the cam install and other parts!!
Going to Norwalk in a week or two to see what it runs, before nitrous it ran 14.2 . 100 shot maybe low 13's ???

 

yeah just a stock rebuild with the hotcam kit

 

Get the Gm Xtream duty timing chain set!

 

Sorry to butt in here but do you think the shorty headers are good enough?
