Thumbs up Cammin BeaSSt

Hey, I just wanted to give a big thanks to Cammin BeaSSt (Ron). He did a head and cam swap on my car. Car is awesome now. Work was very quick and extremely neat. Not only does he do awesome work but is one of the nicest guys you'll meet. Again, thanks Ron. I will be back.

Curious, what are the cam specs and what heads made that kind of power?

That's about as good as it gets on an N/A 346. Very impressive.

Thanx Josh, Im glad you are happy man!!!! It was great working with you on this package!! Let me note a couple of things: most importantly, Im not the only man to give credit to. Im an simply the "PR guy" and Ill turn a few wrenches when needed. I enjoy "building"( on paper ) these packages with the customer to suit their needs. Mike and Buddy turn most of the wrenches and they are extremely detail oriented with what they do.

Just to note, the dyno #s are through a FULL exhaust, 1 3/4 longtubes, Full belt, 315 Nittos.... NO dyno tricks PERIOD.

Josh was one of the first lucky customers to have a package by Vengeance Racing Development here in Cumming Georgia. I will have sponsorship paid in full SOON and we will make an official post. Its a nice thing to have a GM Master Tech of 10years and a guy who has built over 500 heads/cam packages and C5R 427s being the man who turns the wrenches on your car

If anyone needs anything feel free to give me a call. You all have my cell.

Ron

VRD

Awsome #'s Josh! Glad to hear you used VRD and the combo made those #'s.
Mike, Ron and Buddy are top notch LSX guru's and the #'s they got for your setup are NOT a fluke.

They've been tuning my junk for awhile now, and never cease to amaze me as to what they can pull out of a "mild" combo.

Back when I was on the lil' baby T1 cam(221/558, 112), everyone said it was done at 383/383. Uh huh... they ended up with 416/404 on the ls6 intake/stock TB. That was three years ago.

More recently, 460/424 on a (still small F11)228/230, 90/90 through a big geared(4:56)12 bolt/28" slick M6 combo.

Sorry 'bout the rant... just trying to say that these guys got the LSx down pat, and are evry bit the pro's ATL.'s been needing/looking for
..... and the best part is "most" folks won't be given near the verbal abuse I endure when they visit. Win/Win situation

I need my car tuned and am looking for a place in atlanta that I could drop it off at on a saturday and leave it there for the week and pic up the following saturday. Of the 3 or 4 times I've had it 'dyno tuned' I never got a print plus my drivability sucks. I got ripped. Anyways and recommendations with contact numbers?Thanks

Just for the recoard asswipe i'm the one who told you those Cartek heads were junk and the reason you weren't making power. I then told you to go to TEA, and you made your 4XX #'s. Just for the record

Ok asswipe. Just for the record.... YOUR boys at RP couldn't do better than the 383 posted AFTER the head swap. Before the head swap it was at 377 or sumptin'. It was MY boys at GMMG got the 416/404 #.

Don't hate the playa.... hate the game

Thanx for playing

Got LS1?

Huh? I've never sported RP. And I was the one who told you to swap heads and go to TEA.

No LS1, but I got a lil Suzuki you can play with. Really small 4cyl, Bring $$$
