Hey, I'm thinking about doing some valve train work. I've been told many things such as not to do it or to just go for it. I know it yields many advantages from what I've been told. I just wanted to know if there is anyone out there who has done this before. Are there any noticeable gains? I'm also looking into going to forced-induction in the near future. Will that give me more gains compared to FI with a stock valve train? I was thinking into getting bigger valves, dual valve springs, new cams, and a stroker kit. Will all of this be worth for whatever gains I will get?

 

I think you should go FI 1st so you can see and feel how much you gain before digging into the engine! I think you will find you pick up enough hp! You need to have more time in your S before going any bigger! your still a little new with your S ! take it slow with your mods.

jmo!

 

The way I see it is that valve train work seems a whole lot cheaper than FI. And if I don't go FI, I'll still have some nice work done. I just don't wanna blow my car up lol. Is it worth it though? I was looking at those Brian Crower valve train parts and they don't seem expensive compared to other brands.

 

FI dammit,

You will yield better results. More power for da money.

 

Stroker kit alone is about $1000 plus labor.

FI you can get for about $2500 new.

Youre halfway there.

 

with Jari & Jules, but Pops not so much

 

Boost your shit.

 

Hmmm.. Well, here's the SC kit that I showed JC. http://www.superchargersuperstore.com/inde...sort=20a&page=2

There are 2 kinds though, V2 SCi trim system and V3 SCi Tuner kit. I don't know the difference.

Are you new to the boost world?

I would suggest a kit that comes with an EMU, also there are several used vortec kits for sale on the FS threads... Buy one of those.
