your intakes will ONLY give you 10BHP with Both upper and lower Ported and polished w/ gasket matched. this is dyno proven by a buddy i know with our 4.2's. Heads does another 20BHP IF you do the intakes. and if you do all of the before mentioned, then a cam will add ~20-25BHP. This is ALL. after a consecutive dyno sessions this has been the case on a 99 4.2. Your maybe looking at 45-55BHP W/ cam, and custom chip. $ to HP = LOTS = not good.

but it still adds power and thas all i care about
