the 90mm swap may not be whats best for you...some say its too much for a stock
head 5.3 an some say its just right. i dunno, i say try the parts and if they dont work try something else. do as much research and look at a ton of dyno graphs! real
world track times and combos. some baby combos do very well an put a hurting on those big cam/converter combos! a lot may not think it but look at all the people running the 212/218 and 214/220 cams running very good times and dangerous mph (100-104mph)
