Well I am wondering if it would be better to get a header like fmf powerbomb or should i get a cam and worry about the header later.
Which one would make more power and torque?
i don't know as much as others on here but i felt the most from my cam

Do a stage 1 or 2 cam and you can grind the welds down in the stock head pipe to flow better.

i already have
i would say cam. most people say that the stock header is real good until u start getting into the bigbore kits for an example a slip on pipe and a full exhaust isnt that much difference in horsepower until u get a bigbore kit. also i think a bigger header will help out on the top end power not the bottom end torque.

You will benefit the most out of a cam by opening up the intake and exhaust. If you plan on doing both, I would say header first, then cam. Just my .02

do i need h-d valve springs to run it no hd springs needed but a stage 2 cam will probley be better in the long run and it will give u bottom and mid. power to help u pull through the higher gears faster
