I'm considering installing an after market camshaft, maybe a KRC210 and having the heads ported, how much hp would I gain from the mods?

Without work on the intake, exhaust and PCM, probably not as much as you think.

Btw, I didn't know KRC had a 210 for the V6.

Sorry, Devin, I wasn't trying to be a "wise guy." I don't always know what is new. I had to find out what the 6b was. Are you planing on adding a supercharger? If not, stay with the 112 degree for more torque in a NA application.

There are still too many variables. You may gain as little as 15 or as much as 45hp. You would do well to upgrade your intake system and I don't mean the "cold air." Either have your tb opened up to 48 or 49mm. You could also go with a V8 tb. I would have done this before going with the headers.

You've got the engine exhaling, now get it to inhale. I would also have the current setup dynoed and see where your power is.

I failed to mention I have a v8 throttle body order from a bone yard in Iowa. It should be here in a few days.

Depending on what you have, you may also need a throttle linkage. If you want to save yourself some more bucks, look at hughesengines.com to see what they offer in the way of regrinds for your cam.

Devin K. If you are going to spend the money on the heads and cam, then you may wnat to finish up with having your intake manifold modified. Made a big diffference on my V6.
