Arrow I've got to be getting annoying by now... But PLEASE tell me what you think

So I know I've been posting about racing seats, gears and other crap like that. I've got this nailed down to 2 things. As everybody can clearly see it's tax time . I'm trying to decide on 4.56 gears all around with posi in back OR HS 1.7 rockers, 52mm TB, 14x3 filter, Mopar valve and filter covers, either M1 or F1 intake and to top it off Hemifever tuned. But I was just talking to one of my buddies and he is trying to talk me into doing a cam to now. What do you all think I'm trying to rap my head around all the power ill have but it feels like im getting hit by a To do it or not to, That is where you all come in. What do you think, Am I crazy stupid, going???????

It's all going to be done. I'm just trying to decide what order to do it in. That's where everybody comes in and the advise of the cam or no cam.

Just remember with more cam you will prob need to replace the springs and bearings too. I just did sct and would rate it number 1 followed by gears. I am at the same point with taxes, i cant decide over cosmetics or more bolt on performance goodies

Your stock injectors should be adequate, I would think. They are good for lots of HP, believe it or not. From my understanding, our stock injectors are good until you start doing serious, serious modifications (more than bolt-ons).

do NOT get new injectors. Your stock ones will handle fuel delivery until you increase displacement. MAYBE if you do intake, heads, cam, throttle body...basically do the whole motor, then I would get bigger injectors.

I have bigger injectors and I had to get a wideband O2 sensor to trim the fuel. Plus custom tuning from hemifever.

NO NEW INJECTORS. And don't do a camshaft unless you are also doing heads. And do not do a camshaft if you have never done it before. A new camshaft will add about 600 to your total price with the camshaft AND new lifters, and new springs.

SCT, 456 gears and you will be more than happy.

I liked my gears. Made trailers alot easy to pull. But I'm trying to move up in the truck world.
