I am sure lots of you guys have done the following to your cars-
Cam, head/rockers/lifter package, headers & sport exhaust.
I have gotten estimates on parts...about $10k. For all of you that have done this, what are the labor costs? Hidden costs or add'l upgrades that will be deemed necessary due to the increased HP/TQ, or to take full advantage of these upgrades? (Tuning? ECU? Radiator?)
I am trying to get a clear idea of the overall cost to upgrade the drivetrain on a GTS to a NA 650+ RWHP. Is it going to end up costing more than the car is worth? (00 GTS, 15k miles,I am told is worth about $30k (on a Viper) -$35k (on a Vette) trade-in value). Thanks. Jim
