You get off on throwing a cam in that barely clears ptv on stock heads and telling people they suck because they didn't do the same? and that it's perfectly drivable? Jesus man.. just how small is your dick anyways?


I have never knocked anyone's 224 cam, except yours after you come in and attack people who have a bigger cam. I have read some of your posts and you seem to have cam envy. You should really learn to deal with it.

As for your car, I found the post about all the things you removed out of your car, and what you plan to do this winter. I don't feel like quoting it all, but lets just say, potato chip. Give up the argument bro, get over you cam envy and move on.

Honestly man, if I wanted to run a big cam like a vidicator, I'd buy a big cam like a vindicator. It takes a weekend to put one in. However I don't want a max effort cam. Simple as that.. but my medium 228/232 cam and ported 243's will match or better those numbers in your sig and it's not even optimized. No U/D, stock-ish compression, 3" catback only.. Especially if I got it on a dynojet. It's currently being retuned on a mustang dyno, I will have it back whenever I can get down to get it this week.

And since when is a lightweight k-member, control arms, fiberglass hood, and a little other weight reduction turning a car into a potato chip? Maybe you just don't have the ***** to lighten your pig up a bit? You'll get better gas mileage, be easier on parts, and run faster.. at no cost of drivability.. why NOT do it?

This is all a stupid argument, but I see some irony here:
347fairless - why do you have a quote in your sig making fun of people for wanting the newest, biggest cam, when you fell for the same thing? Or am I not understanding what that quote means?

Little other weight reduction? Your pretty liberal with the term little.

Have done: remove ac, remove spare and jack, remove front bumper support, remove rear seats, remove rear speakers, remove air and egr.

Am doing this winter: tubular k-member, tubular LCA's, fiberglass hood, lightweight driver and passenger seats

Also changing out the rocker arms, the stock ones are too loud imo, going to do an U/D pulley since I didn't yet, and will probably do some minor porting on the Typhoon intake.

Still debating the carpet.. and I left the rear bumper support on, as I'm 100 times more likely to get rear ended than run into someone.. I'm just real careful about where I park so the front won't get hit.

edit: just decided what to do with the carpet.. I will do the lightweight carpet with no dampening when the cage goes in so I only have to pull the interior once.

Gonna pull the carpet too and put race seats in? P-o-t-a-t-o C-h-i-p

You have the typhoon intake too and your bragging about making more horse than me? I'm still running through a flowmaster. If I optimized my combo (FAST 90, ewp, cut-outs, stepped headers with merge collectors) it could get real ugly quick.

I'm out, see you in some other forum, some other thread...

It was just a funny line from a guy who I ad an argument with when he started knocking my cam. I just thought it was a funny line to quote.

Okay cool. And I promise I'm not taking sides, but what's the potato chip comment? And you say weight reduction like it's bad. It's one of the very best, most cost-effective, and actually SMARTEST mods to do to an F-body.

The potato chip comment was in reply to his comments about my car's streetability in regards to idle and low end power.

I retorted with the potato chip comment to make the connection that streetability is relative, as I wouldn't drive a car with as much stuff stripped out of it as he has, just like he won't have a car with an "unruly" 100 rpm floating idle (which I do not have).

I just find it ironic and hypocritical that someone can drive a virtual tin can, yet talk **** about the exagerated trial and tribulations of having a big cam like mine.

LoL I'm really spent with this argument, it was a good one.
