you clearly have done a good job taking care of yhour car, and good job on the install. How long ago was the cam install? (time wise.... not miles)

Moble 1 Seeing that my cam only car runs with 460whp mustangs and 347ci H/C cars im sure my compression is good My oil PSi is never below 40psi
Vid of me racing My 2nd run my clutch got hot and on speed shift going into 4th the clutch started slipping so i go out of it. guy im running is about 200-300lbs lighter then my car too

Another vid of me racing a 441whp mid 11 sec TBSS and a 460whp blower stang. My clutched was hating life on these runs to every gear on speed shifts it would pop the rev limiter
