Looks like a decent package, other than it's a bit pricey ($4600):
* Blackwing™ Induction System (21116)
* PowerFlo™ Cast Quad Tip Exhaust System (31076)
* SLP Custom Tuning (60060)
* 160º Thermostat (100228)
* 1.85 Rocker Arm Package (51185)
* Long Tube Ceramic Coated Headers (30125)
* Header Installation Kit (30128)
* Header Down Pipes (30129)
* High-Flow Catalytic Converters (30131)
* PowerFlo-X Crossover Pipe/Balance Tube Assembly (30132)
* ZL465 Fender Badges (pair)
I have the 160 stat, K&N inlet, and LG Pro long tubes with high flow cats and X pipe. Only thing I'm missing is the catback, tuning, the rockers, and the badges (I don't need no stinking badges). I'm making 360 rwhp which with the auto puts me right at 440 hp at the crank.
You can get the LG's for $1800, the K&N for around $300, the stat for $25. Then you can get the rockers and valve springs for around $1000. A mal order tune will be around $200 to $300 (Texas Speed has specials ocassionally) That would put you at $3325 and even with a $1000 catback, you are at $4325 and you have a much better set of headers.
However, I've heard that the SLP valve springs have broken. If you really want a nice setup, forget about the rockers. Put in a nice 224/228 cam. The cam, pushrods, and some good dual valve springs should run around $700 (package price from Texas Speed). If you can't do your own install, the install should cost about $300 more than doing just rockers. Now, mind you, you will not be at 465, you'll be closer to 490 (this is crank hp)!
If you also want to save some money, don't do the $1000 catback since the stock cat back sounds pretty darn good with the stock catback. Or you could go with the Flowmasters that cost around $370.
Good luck,
Glenn
