Default 69 Chevell build

Thanks, I read in CarCraft magazine an article where they made 480hp from a stock LQ4 with just a cam and a 750 double pumper carb. So I am doing everything the exact same as in the article. We will find out if it is true or not. Had the engine just sitting here. Shouldn't have to much $$ in it. (I hope).

Default Cam Swap

Swaped in the GM performance Hot cam kit part# 12480033. Used magnets and 5/16 brake lines. Did not want to pull the heads off. The 5/16 brake lines worked great.




Have a stock cam and oil pan if anyone is interested.
I am using the GM muslecar pan. I hope it works.
