Cam swap completed! Updated with link to pics/vids
Last night my friend Tony and I finished up the cam swap on my car. I put in a Futral F11 112 +4, Chromoly pushrods, Crane duals, Ti retainers and an asp pulley. We started the job on Sat, continued on Sunday (ran into a few snags), and finally finished up last night and fired her up. Sounds awesome. My idle is all wacked out but it did start up fine and idled well from a cold start. The whole swap was not too bad although we realized the "little stuff" takes up a lot of time (removing radiator and hoses, getting crank seal out, crossthreading a rocker bolt!) . All in all it was a good time! Tony took a ton of digital pics all the way through and we even got some sound clips of the first start up and some idle and revs
I just want to give Matt Sorian of TT Performance some due credit for getting me a set of Crane duals on 2 hrs notice on a sunday (I was missing an inner spring to one of mine). Matt Met up with me near my house and hooked me up with a great price as well. Thanks goes out to you.
Also Candy at Futral Motorsports- Went out of her way to overnight me the cam due to backlogs at their cam grinders! Thanks a bunch
And Thanks to Tony for helping me with the whole deal, two people thrashing on the car is a much better way to work!
Update- Here's a link to the pics and some of the footage from a dig cam capture

Thats awesome. Congrats on the install. I think you'll really enjoy that cam. I have the FM-F4-112+4 and loved it. It dynoed 390rwhp untuned on a 95degree day.
Matt at TTP is a really great guy to deal with and Futral Motorsports is also very good to deal with. I highly recommend them both.

Thanx...don't forget to post your numbers whenever you get them. I'm interested to see what type of power your cam make. Good luck with the cam

Whats up rob! Had a blast, man. Your car sounds sick.
Anyway, MUCH PROPS to Matt. Ive rarely if ever seen someone go so far out of their way to help a customer. Really cool move man!
Thanks to rob for letting me get through the learning curve on the safety of someone else's motor!
