CAM for sure. if u have some cash left over ull need a new clutch after about a week of driving lol.
Should be able to get a cam for under 3500 drive in drive out with tune, maybe if be able to get an OTR in there too.
Dunno how much a tex would cost you but shouldnt cost more then 2000 fitted.

no idea man pretty sure they come in a kit with everything you need. Ive TEX clutches herd there pretty heavy and screetch a lot, they take a while to get use too but you shouldnt have to much of a problem with it.
