    cam is no good without springs, detroit will cost you to get it installed and springs are easy to install

    I voted for the Detroit locker.

    I would buy and install the cam, springs, pushrods, and a torque converter at the same time.

    Well you said with the 400, sounds like you have more to play with then just 400, thats a damn good price to install that detroit. I seriously doubt you can get it done for that unless its a friend since bearings and a new crush sleeve will run you 60 bucks.

    All the power in the world is going to do you no good until you can put it to the ground, so my choice is the D&#39;troit&#33; A convertor to fit the cam you plan to go with in the future would be next.

    i was putting &#036;400 out there cause thats about where everything is at on the parts... i can go alittle more but no more then &#036;575 max

    Having a brother work at a chevy dealership with other employee friends in other areas such as parts distrubutor, to rearend and transmission overhauler helps alot ...

    I think you guys are right who voted the locker and to hold off installing the converter until i get my cam that way everything will go together better... so thats what i&#39;m going to do then...thanks guys&#33;

    I voted locker&#33; Same reason as Red, no amount of power is good without traction.
