Would stage 3 cams doing anything for me? If so what else should be done? Just wondering about it.

good question Mick as I thought about this too. Id say it would help....it makes a difference on N/A motors and should make even a bigger difference on FI motors...Id love to do it
My brothers 347 makes 515 at the crank...its not street freindly at all. dont get me wrong....it is still fun! but everyday....nah

higher lift/duration cams will make huge power on FI application. +1 on street friendly. I'm only at 347 and my car rattles my teeth
good to know a "+" on the street next year........

I don't think 400 N/A would be very street friendly and it would be excessivly expensive. I am at 473 with my S/C and it is very street friendly and I am sure I have not spent anywhere near what it would cost to get to 400 N/A. That being said if you really want to do it have you considered a stroker rotating assembley with ported heads and cams? If you stroke it out to 298 or 302 and have ported heads, cams L/T headers and a good CAI you may be able to get it, but I don't know how streetable the car would be. Just a thought.

Ok Mark as you know I am not sure of my horsepower the weather got too cold by the time I could do the dyno it but I am guessing I am near MickMach, are you saying if I do stage 3 It will not be streetable? Also if you do cam should I do heads and forge the bottom? I am looking to stay on pump gas and using car only on my time off it has to stay street legal. I am concerned about cost but it will not hold me back I hope. Just wondering what I should plan on doing down the road. I am still going to keep all mods under the hood for as long as I can hold out. This sleeper thing is really fun I should bring a camera you gotta see and hear the remarks when I open the hood.

Mick, u have a lot of potential still from your supercharger, just throw a smaller pulley (3.6) inch since u have a 3.8, that will be good for 2 lbs of boost ! and it only costs 170 dlls aprox

Tough call. You add state 3 cams to your blower and you'd potentially add another 60 rwhp. Add PnP heads and you might be getting into an unsafe range for a stock 3v motor.
Thanks MexGt I did not know a pully change would help.
Mark what if I go thru the $ and hassle of redoing the lower end?
