300s will never be a popular motor so recognised performance companies dont spend any money designing new parts. Its a shame.

do a little work to them and they really come alive. Name another motor that you can double the factory horsepower for less than a grand naturally aspirated. Put an extra $500 and a little time on top of that and HP gets pretty close to 300.

mines not stock now.....i have the older style pistons (more compression) i got a cam, clifford header.....all new ignition box, coil, and all other ignition, minor headwork, k&n.....
with the 35's it was a pullin sob.....when i sas'd it and went 38's it didn't do as good.....the sas was prob my biggest waste of $$$ ever......i only had it for like 3 months before i ripped it all out.....lame!

i know you're not asking me, but just seeing the ones with coilovers run through the pits makes me believe they work alot better and ride smoother. seeing a truck with 62" ags, just squatting because of the throttle and traction makes you want to break out the check book.
