Talking 228r Cam Swap Results Video.

After my cam swap, Late Model Racecraft tune I made a little video. The video explains everything. The music may not appeal to some so try to ignore it.

Edit: Also, I would like to thank Texas Speed for the quick shipping and good advice. I highly recommend TSP. Also, Late Model Racecraft in Houston did a great job tuning my car.

I am going to the track soon, I have to change out my transmission mount and then im ready to go. About 2000 miles on the cam now and multiple 6800+ shifts and everything is holding up solid.
Yes it is very very loud thru the headers and cutout, WOT you can hear it across town.
The new found power with the Monster level 2 clutch has transformed the car!

I am glad you like it. IMO it is a great street cam, with a 2800-3600 stall you will be scooting along!
I too did a lot of researching and video watching before deciding on the 228r
