LQ4 swap
 
Ive picked up a LQ4 for my 99 ext cab and have already installed a Texas Speed Magic Stick4. What are some good set up with this cam? Id like to put about 400-425 at the wheels on motor and spray er wit a little happy gas :) Opinions please!

Are asking what mods you should do in addition to the cam? Your gonna need a BIG stall and a built tranny or ant other mods are gonna be useless.

Do you have a 3800 or better converter?

i dont have a convert at all yet. The build is still a long ways from completion but i think im gonna stick with a 3200 for daily street use.

gonna need a big stall and a lot more compression!!

+1 on big converter (3800+) and more compression, which will be hard for a LQ4, if you want to run that cam. If this is your DD, I would do a smaller cam. IMO
