what vehical are the L98's commonly on??Whifflebat said:I havn't heard much about that cam, BUT, i've heard the Edelbrock 3704 intake manifold is a great option. Also you might consider a pair of L98 iron heads, they flow alot better than the TBI heads and they are a direct swap for the old ones.

Im looking at upgrading the top end of my 95 gmc TBI engine. How ever im still up in the air with what to do.
I would like to upgrade the Cam, Lifters, etc, Chain, Heads, and intake.
Im sticking with the stock TBI and doing a few mods to it.
I think im going to get the Edelbrock cam part number 3702, any comments??
and go with the lifters and everyhthing through them.
Ive heard alot of bad things about my stock heads, so id like to possibly change to the Vortec heads off the 96 and up gms. But i need to find out what intake i can use so i can still use my stock TBI, or if there is any adapter plates for use with the edelbrock intakes for vortec heads.
ANy comments or information would be great!!!
Thanks

Where do you reccomend finding these parts??91_bowtie said:The heads are really where your budget comes into play. The cheapest, and most cost efficient route would be the iron L98's, casting #083. You should be able to find a set for about $200. Take them to a machine shop you trust, and have them go to work. Choose the right springs for your cam, and assemble the heads.
The Edelbrock #3704 intake manifold is the best option for you. It's only $200 new, and you can find a used one for about half that, if you really look.
It'll work, but I would spend the extra $50, and get a better chain. Like you said, this is your daily driver and you want it to last.brando said:Hey, :head:
Just curious, what are your comments on the cloyes 9-1100SP Timing chain set. ? for use on the crane 2030 Hydraulic Flat Tappet Cam? I think this is the cam im going to go with. Im also going to go with the iron L98 heads, what are the model numbers that you used for you Push rods, Springs, and Rockers?
Do you think the Stock Rockers and push rods will work fine ??
ALso what are some recommendations for Computer chips?
Thanks again!
