    wheres the long tube headers? with that cam you'll need some decent flowing heads and a better stall! alot of mods but NO internal mods!!!

    More stall more gears more exhaust then it will work wonders.

    yo

    this is a DD, so im not looking to put 4.11's in or changing Trailblazer stall for 3000. if you guys like headers and think putting in headers and an ORY is going to get me better than 35hp by doing cam, which ones? Pacesetter's? PaceSetter - 72C2265 - PaceSetter LSX Truck-SUV Long Tube Headers Coated - Speed Engineering Performance Parts

    long tubes? Price's? how much time to swap out headers? i think by changing cam, springs, pushrods for $575 would be better. not looking to make DD as fast as weekend warrior but i want to know what the next step would be given time and $$.

    I would go long tubes first, like nate said you need some more free flowing exhaust with that cam, stall might be fine but you will still suffer a little down low. But gears for sure too.

    Do the "supporting mods" first like exhaust then move to the internal stuff. Headers would give you 20+ but not quite 35, but your cam would see bigger gains with headers already in place.

    Depending on what headers you choose, of course.
