Vortec heads with TBI

[AtomicHoe094]

Just picked up a GMPP TBI intake manifold to work with the 96+vortec heads. On top of that i picked up a 700cfm Holley throttle body with 70lb injectors with a pod spacer, 18lb spring, TB spacer and more. With addition of the ****** longtubes and electric fans and CAI, im hoping to really perk up this TBI. All emission friendly for dumb ohio.

now just a couple more things to grab and she should be a pretty torqueyy mother F'er. I'm thinking cam along with the new heads, double roller chain and a programmable computer then i wouldn't need to get chips burned all the time.

This with along with everything else will be done in the winter time when i have some time... IE, in the process of reupholstering my seats, headliner and door panels, i have a 5/7 drop i have to put on, SSBC rear disc kit, MSD ignition shit, and a couple other odds and ends stuff. should be a slammed fast hoe here shortly, i just wish i still had my Whipple

sweet, any idea on cam you wanna use?

 

[AtomicHoe094]

Not sure, actually im reading on some as i type. Im not camsmart, so any help you have well deff be appreciated. Found some good information with these 2 cams on a TBI motor
Edelbrock 2102 or Comp 12-249-4
Ill have to change the rocker arms for sure when going with a milder cam.

Curious to see what you come out with Adam. Sounds like it's gonna be good..

Thanks!, I hope so man. I have some stuff i need to paint on the truck this winter, debating about making it a tu-tone. whatcha think about that? black from the bottom of the windows up. and keeping the bottom orange. its still in the air, but if i get some time this winter i might do it.

I have a lot going on right now, i just opened up my own shop. about 5thous square feet (commercial building) where ill be upholstering for a living. boats, cars, trucks, whatever you have it will be done. then for side jobs ill paint, body work, mechanical and shit.

I don't know. I like the look you're sporting now , maybe it's just me but adding more black would look off. Maybe do a photo shop shot of it to try and get a visual. I wanna see pics of the interior when you get it upholstered..

edit: im not good at PS! lol if someone can help me out.. and i also changed the name of the thread. maybe i can get it moved to the general OBS section instead of the performance section, that would be good..

be interesting on what final compression will be, with 64cc Vortec head on there. I'd use a Comp, but wouldn't ever use an Edelbrock cam. But that's me.

I had a similar setup planned out, I was going a lil more aggressive on the intake, was gonna do a Edlebrock RPM non air gap with a carb/TBI adapter and something like an LT4 cam with bee hive springs and Vortec heads. Should be fun if it can be tuned.

here's the guy that can tune it: http://www.tbichips.com/default.htm
I just sent Brian my computer today.
Smoke'n deal on the cam: http://www.willhoitescams.com/
Cant beat the price on the LT4 but I went with his 270 W/112 LS
Check out Alex's store for incredible price on the BeeHive Springs, locks, and retainers. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310243382690&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT
