Ouch!!!! I thought they'd be competitive with Harrop for pricing. Stage 4 Harrop pack which is comparable and includes driveline warranty is $8,300 for 410KW.

So on top of the W375, they want nearly 6 grand for a new cam, lifters, and a tune ?

Or in simpler terms, 6 grand for an extra 32kw...

Must be a **** cam or a **** tune. I got 70rwkw by camming my VF1. I know the LS3 cam is a bit more aggressive to start with but still...

What power and mods did you start with? and what power after? What cam specs did you use?

Cheer!

I made 350rwhp or 260rwkw with 1 7/8 headers, twin 3", and VCM MAF OTR. With the same support mods (except now MAFless) I added a 232/234 .600 lift 114LSA cam with appropriate rods/springs/afm delete, with the same tuner and dyno I made 440rwhp or just shy of 330rwkw.

Has anyone got the Harope long tube headers, I am considering this set up just like to know if people like the setup going with OTR/Tune 2.5 manta catback system. Going with 2.5 over 3 because of the drone at low revs with 3" systems. Also I am not interested in the Walkinshaw W anything not paying for the name or their badges

The manta 2.5 sounds great with 4-1s. Mine are made by GM Motorsport, but will sound even better with true long tube headers too!

Just rang my local Walkinshaw dealer. Quoted $10990 for full W407 pack and $5850 for upgrade from W375 with new lifters.

Ive got the W375 fitted to my series 2, what makes me laugh is the Walkinshaw shop in Perth are doing a Head and Cam package for around the 6.500k mark..
What a joke 11k for full exhaust and a cam...

So what would a reasonable price to pay for a cam and tune package be?

$4.5k mark if you've got the AFM junk that needs ripping out in the VF1 auto and less if you don't.

Hey Jarp;
I paid $3,100 for cam, valve springs, pushrods, APR bolt, 3 bolt cam gear, MAFLESS conversion kit and tune.
