    meilssa at nelson perfromance

    Hello and Welcome
    I see that your next modification is going to be pcm tune. Well can i suggest a Nelson tune. It increases horsepower and torque which we all know thats what makes all worth it. Better throttle response, firmer and higher shift pionts and of coarse better drivability. And last but not least increased gas mileage, who doesnt want that?
    Want more infromation please email me melissa@nelsonperformance.com or visit our website nelsonperformance.com Believe me you wont regret it
    Thanks for time new guy

    Eh, it sounds ok... Make sure you do a CAI and LT's with that that cam... And also get a set of 7.4 hardened pushrods too!

    i didn't want to go to big, i have heard the 220 cam that is popular would cause to much of a loss of low end. i need low end for off roading and towing. i am not out for all out power.

    LT's and a CAI is for sure. as well as a good tune. also got new springs with the cam, but i was told by others that stock pushrods are ok with this cam. you are the first to recommend new pushrods.
