Default Cam is in

Man, what a fiasco.

Everything went smooth until I atempted to use pen magnets to hold up the lifters. Nice little $200 and 8 hour mistake. Oh well, **** happens right.

So once the heads were pulled, and magnets removed and quickly sent to the torch to be destroyed the car was put back together and started up nice.

Don finished tuning on his 232/238 cam with some extra lift.

410/370 on a 6 speed through a 9 inch


big thanks to Bob and Kevin for the help on the install.

Edit: heres a crappy vid of the idle

screwing the babysitter wasnt all that dramatic and being a drunk kennedy driving off a bridge is borderline expected.

that entire family sounds like they know how to have a good time.

That's why you use the JRP Cam tool to hold up the lifters.
