I like it alot. My buddie Larry did a great job tuning the car, it drives like stock. I didn't want a huge cam. The combination of this cam, 3.42 gears and a 3600 Vig makes a real nice setup that drives great on the street and runs pretty good at the track as well. I can't wait for the good air to get here. Might be able to knock a couple of tenths off my best, we'll see.

I had the opportunity to drive a vette that was running that same cam. It felt far more docile on the street than my t2 but it pulled real hard up top. I think you made a great choice Bruce.

here is to praying. what lift is yours? Mine is the 598 609 lift with a 113+2 or 112+2 LSA... Some lope but nothing redic. Independant rear and weak rear and 60lb flywheel would make me MUCH slower in the 1/4 mile... Also no slicks.

Were any of yall at the OC cruisin?

I have the same cam and have hit 117MPH traps lately with it at Cecil. Where is the car shifting at WOT? I have found 6500 is where the car traps the best.

This cam also LOVES heads on an LS1...

Not to thread hijack but I have 243's should I send them off to advanced induction? I would rather do this now than take them off again!

My shift point is set at 6500 rpm. How much does your car weigh?

Yes. Make sure you get injectors and have them milled too.

Great! I am not sure. I weigh 180 pounds. I run with jack and spare in the car but I have mods that took some weight off(Strano bar,Bumper support,PHB,MAF,UMI PHB,V6 front sway bar) on an already light car(B4C that has no cd changer or trunk mounted speakers) at a fast MPH track(I am usually 2-3 MPH faster at Cecil than everywhere else). Like wayfast I am adding AI 243 heads and Gran Prix injectors soon along with light weight rotors,UMI k member,light weight battery and light rear bumper support. We will see what happens. I bet at Cecil right now you could hit 116 MPH easy in good air.

Sounds like a nice setup. What ET's are you running now, before the heads go on?

Went to a track rental at MIR today. It was cloudy and cold. No changes to the car. Ran a new best.

60' - 1.58 <----- New best
1/8 - 7.40 <------New best
1/8 mph - 91.23
1/4 - 11.71 <-----New best
1/4 mph 114.32

This was my first pass. I'm happy with the 60'. Control arms are the only suspension mod. Bad news is my posi unit is toast. After my second pass the car was doing the infamous 1 tire burnout. I called it a day and drove home. Hope to get the posi sorted out before the end of the season to hit my goal of 11.60's for the car. I might swap the 3.42's and go with 3.73's, I'm not sure how much I would pick up though.

Trap speed can be effected more by raceweight,DA,trans,gears. I trap 117 mph with a hotcam My new EPS cam should be going in soon 234/246 should pick up some MPH.
