Check out my cam and tell me what you think.

My car currently has this cam in it from a previous rebuild.

Ive been thinking about putting an Engle K56 in, but only want to go through the hassle,

if it will be a noticeable difference.



My car setup....

Its pretty much bone stock.

I just purchased this intake for it, as most people seem to think its the way to go.

I will be putting Headers and the TTI exhaust on it.

As well changing the gears to 3.55's

Thanks.

[2Gunz]

oh and what air cleaner will make this thing fit under the hood?

Stock looking would be nice.

[mally69]

If your just looking for a bit more than stock and not racing then yea this seems ok 
If it were me id probably go just a bit Larger on the cam   i dont know anything about that engle cam though,, i was referring to the one thats already in the engine

[Chryco Psycho]

K 56 is a great cam , I use it a lot

[2Gunz]

Ok....

But is it worthwhile to upgrade from what I have.

The list looks fine 

What valve springs are you going with ? Make sure they have enough seat/open pressure as well as coil bind room for the new cam. 

The Comp Cams # 911 spring would work with this combo.

Engle had a set that they recommended and thats what Im using for springs.

Still trying to figure out what I need to make the Performer RPM fit under the hood and what I need to make

the kick down and throttle work.

[mikepmcs]

The only parts issue I ran into was the retainers.  I didn't order them cause I thought mine would work.  So if you think that will be an issue call Chris back and get some retainers to fit those springs.
