Super Six Motor Sports / RPM Mustangs / and DELK performance all sell custom spec'd cams for our cars.

However gains will be smaller without doing ported&polished intakes and heads at the same time.

In the meantime, before I get the intakes and heads, will I at least get that meaner sound from just puttin the cam in?

Yeah, you're probably right. the last thing I want to do is mess with a cam. i've got some guys that could probably help me over the summer, and by then I can save some cash to get the cam and have food money haha

superchargers are 3 grand a pop for your V6 dude. Vortec makes them. at Super Six Motorsports, they sell a pack of fully ported lower intake, ported/polished upper intake/plenum, port/polished heads, Comp Cams, and a Throttle body for 1800 - 2700, depending on the package you get. you get the same increase from a stock engine with supercharger at 9 PSI (the safe psi a stock engine can handle), and you spend less.
