where do you shift it? you say 218 truck cam, what are the exact specs? lsa, ICL? I know it almost doesnt matter what specs you give out as everyones combo is a little different, but I'd just like to get a better understanding of your combo.

Very nice, and to think I cant get my car do do nothing close to that! Im trying to figure out how to setup the spark table. Do large cams need a lot of timing before boost?

Damn, that thing is badass. I know what I'll be doing to my Nova once I'm done playing around with the nitrous sbc in it now..... What fuel injection system are you using? That's a pretty small cam in there, would it pick up any if you went to a larger custom grind?

What does the exhaust system consist of? It sounds
Pretty silent but really has a sweet note while in boost

Thanks. It has a full exh to rear axle. 4" pipe with magnaflow muffler.
Shift is at 6600 rpm. I still have a stock case glide with stock plannets. Saving up for a stronger trans. Prob wont see a trans brake launch from this car unless it is in competition, or $ on the line.

Yes, larger cam holds the valves open longer creating less cylinder pressure needing an earlier ignition event to create cylinder pressure sooner making more torque.

What volume are the combustion chambers?
