    Cam and spring install

    Hey guys I just purchased some comp camps and springs which should be here pretty soon and I need someone to install em for me. Perf. Sol. told me $2,500 for install and I just laughed and hung up. Guy had no idea what he was talking about. Anyway I would be more then willing to work out a deal with someone who could install them (I'd be willing to pay cash up front so there is no BS). Please post up if you're interested or even know someone who would do it. Thanks! Andrew

    *Forgot to mention this is for an 02 GT 5-speed. Stock motor right now.

    AMP is another option. I have no clue on how their service is though, Im sure someone here can chime in. Never tried anyone else than SVC. Never had a reason to.

    wow. thats quite an impressive thing to say about someone you have never met. i was gonna add some help till i read these kinda insults....

    you should probably do a little more research before throwing out this kinda of wording. not only does PSR support this site, they have done quite a lot of work for several members on here. and they are a very knowledgable shop.

    and since you have this cross posted on several forums, and it was mentioned to you on 1320stangs that that is a not a simple install, maybe that would be a first sign that this might cost you a little money....

    Hey Aero-

    Just called AMP for you. $2300 for the install. AMP is the greatest shop the universe...

    SVC installed my cams almost 2 years ago, feel free to call them and get a $2XXX quote just for an install as well.

    Dan the "guy who doesn't know what he's talking about" (and quoted you on the phone) just called ADS in Chandler for you; we do a lot of business with them. $2300-2500 just for the install.


    But thanks for the kind words about PSR! Next time you might want to get some 2nd and 3rd opinions before you comment on someone elses intelligence.









































    Oh, and our quote includes retuning...

    Yeah its not cake to install them. More than just pullin the valve covers and install. Gotta get the motor at TDC without pulling the heads. The cam gears need to go on. Then you have to set the cam degree all that crap. I was lookin into cams then I reallized cost of cam + install (way too much possibility for messin it up) and the install cost was too much for me right now for the gains I would get.... Which is why I got a blower. I still may get some blower cams later but with my blower setup I won't need them to max the motor out on lower boost.
    2012 Race Red GT w/ a 5 Liter and a 6 speed
    2010 Dodge Challenger R/T traded in.
    '03 DBS Cobra .... Traded in, THANK GOD
    '01 Ford Lightning.... Sold, sorely missed
