Unless your doing the cam it still amazes me why people don't do these type of mods yourself. If you have no idea how to pull the blower kaytech has a great video they made to explain for there porting program so people can remove it send it to them then install it back correctly , headers are pretty self explanatory and easy, lower pulley would be the only real headache keeping the flywheel still if you didn't have a tiny electric impact with 1000 ft lbs capability or you can always use the flywheel tool stop. The tool for the hub rental is free at autozone or make your own. If you decided on the upper Joker or Kong takes care of that while porting. I compiled a list to help people and installation steps:

How easy are the headers? Do I need a lift?

I installed my 2" kooks in my garage with no lift. Had to lift the passenger side off the motor mounts but other than that went easy.

I have access to a 2 foot scissor lift. Maybe I’ll give it the oldest college try. How long did it take you?

1/2 a day taking my time and being careful not to scratch the coating. Its really easy just takes time to do it right, I did mine on 10" race ramps. What headers do you have?

I had my car re-tuned here in Va by a good friend of mine who tunes for Va Speed and we got some more power out of it(car had just 15-16 degrees of timing when i got it back from Andrew).


They will be upfront with you on anything you ask.
I highly recommend those guys.
Can I ask how much power you were making? With the 775 package and the big boy LT4 Cam package I am hoping to make over 700 RWHP.

I haven’t gotten that far yet. I was gonna go kooks or ARH. The CSP headers seem promising, I haven’t seen much on them yet on the forum (I haven’t looked lately)

I plan on doing headers, intake and flex fuel for now. The intake and flex fuel seem easy enough, the headers seem a bit more involved.

Not to be a jerk but I thought csp was more known for lsx, have they done anything significant on LTx?

Youll be over 700. The cam is good for power alone plus you'll have the 32% fuel lobe. You should get the heads ported too if money allows.

The money allowed but I made the mistake of not being specific enough. This will probably be the only time to do my dream build. Inner cooler, ported heads, Magnuson or whipple, better clutch, and drive shaft coming in spring.
