There are alot of parts out there for the quad, you can take alot of the parts of the W41 and the 2.3 HO such as the intake manifold, throttle body, cams, and other things like that. also check out www.quad4forums.com or www.gmperformancetuning.com for alot more help.

Well For one There are Two Cams in that Engine, Or The head rather. You could upgrade to the Cams from the 2.3L H.O. engine Vin A and that would give you a pretty good change

ok... looked at work today, the only motor the Z24 came with in 95 was the 2.3L quad motor, unless it was made in mexico then it came with a 2.4L

You cant use the HO cams on a 95 or later quad. The intake cam has a pulley machined onto it for the power steering pump, which the earlier quads dont have.
