hey everyone i'm new to the formus and just had a few questions on my 95 trans am. i want to put in a hot cam kit and hooker long tubes. how much horsepower will i be looking at? anything u guys can give me would be great

 

Hey BlackBird,

I used to live in GR. Where are you located?

I think a typical LT1 would see anywhere from 20-50 hp gain from those mods. Someone with that actual setup would be a better source of info.

Well the hot cam kit would be cam, springs, rockers, and your thinking LT headers.

Any other mods? Like a cat back or CAI. Also tuning is needed.

 

i have slp loudmouth and i will be getting pcm4less tune, not really too much else

 

to jake, i live by dean lake and 3mile

 

Cool, I have some friends that live near there. Did you (or do you) go to FHN? I graduated from there in '99.

 

Welcome to the boards. I would guess with the Hotcam kit, the headers, and some other various bolt-ons as well as a good PCM tune, you would be in the 330-350rwhp range.

 

yea i'm a senior at FHN

 

350 rwhp seams a little high but 330rwhp is a realistic goal with the hot cam kit. If you want to be closer to 350rwhp on the stock heads your going to need a bigger cam along the lines or a cc306 or gm847 which are going to require a better valvetrain than the hotcam kit comes with.
