Like the title says, I am looking for 3-4 more mph in the 1/4mile. I'm am looking at getting some LT headers w/matching xpipe. Will LT's alone get me there?

I can consistently pull 13.5-6's @ 101 mph. I am looking for around 104-105 mph. Would cams and a tune be a better option?

for MPH cams really help since they shine up top, LT's are similar. I don't know which to recommend, they both are great options.

You need around 33 more HP or remove around 350 lbs

Cams and tune will get you there faster the longtubes will help but won't give you 3-4 MPH.

Thanks for the replies! I think I'm gonna get the lt's now and hopefully do cams later this summer or so. My current goal for the car is to break into the 12's.
