And John its also a bullshit thread you put up on norcal-lsx about your "VENTING". I like how you said there was a FUEL LEAK, but could never find it, said the ring seal was good. and then just put it on the seal wasn't tight, LOL.
If you look on ls1tech you can see tino has nothing but 100% positive rating and has over 45 transactions made and all were good. You talk about shady, and you are the one going to wyotech and can't figure this **** out, COM'ON MAN!!!! You for real?????
I just hate when people make a "VENTING" thread but say oh its no biggie and not trying to bash the OP buttttttttt........and some lame *** story comes out. Sorry I was just "VENTING" LOL!!!
**** a guy from Missippippi bought tinos old trans am and they made the drive to cali and when took it back loved it and it also ran good just like it ran good when it left here.
Oh and that noise you hear in your clutch is that "CLUTCH CHATTER" that some HI-perf clutchs have. My vette had a stage 3 6-puc and had "Clutch Chatter" not all clutches are the same and all will act a little different. Just like rear diffs when you put in new gears and hope after the install you don't get the "rear diff howl"
and I still think its funny how after the hole thing tino drove over a hour easy to meet you the 1st time to drive it and check it out and you feel head over heels for it and wanted it bad and said it was a bad *** car. and I remember emailing you and you talked about what you were going to do to it after you got it.

Why are you posting in my thread for again? Nobody even brought you guys up I'm trying to get help to fix this car and you come in with worthless postings. That's right I did get rid of the tires,exhaust and was going smaller. Obviously when you plan on making a daily driver in California you won't be needing those. And Yup the ring wasn't locked in and those other issues were happening and no I wasn't bashing your brother. Don't like my postings don't read them. But that's for the bump on this post and yes he did meet with me halfways. Because as much as I wanted a car he wanted a sale and it looked clean and drove decent to me. Like I said I messed up and do regret it. But what's done is done.
Ttt for some real help again please

I would like to know how in the hell he was suppose to know that the cam was chipped??????? You knew of the power it was laying down on a stock longblock. You knew the car ran nitrous before.
When you got it it had good oil pressure right?
There was no abnormal valvetrain noise right?
When you test drove the car around did you notice the gas smell since you said you smelt it everyday?
What i'm getting at is that your "VENTING" on another forum is total bullshit. Because you ran in some badluck you are trying to put it off on someone else.
You want a opinion on this cam.....Replace it with the 228 that you wanted to put in since day one and re-tune it, and go on with your day! But thanks for ruin a sellers credabillaty when all he did was work with you, wasted two days going to san jose with the car because you "couldn't" come to pick it up.

Thanks guys I will be pulling the heads and swapping lifters and will let you know how that goes....as for.maxx your right man it didn't have a oil pressure issue and I did drive it and didn't really notice the fuel but did run rich due to the SD tune being off in a diff location so kinda hard to tell..never bashed him on norcal and don't see why you trying to start something from a different forum over here for..Yup he did come over here as that was something we worked out which is something you weren't invooved in. So I'm done explaining anything to you and this thread is pretty much done

Cam is toast. How did it get that way, no clue. Pretty funny how I never had a single problem with the car until it has been in your hands. You make it seem like ALL this stuff just started to happen 
Your buying a hot rod, what do you expect cars to do when you push them to their limit. Its always gonna be the weakest link. Unfortunate the lifters took out the cam probably.
And please Saul im not stupid, I drove it weekends and always check my fluid levels before cruisin' the car.
The only little problem the car had with the nos was the schraeder valve was left in the fuel rail not giving it enough fuel. Unscrewed it out and problem solved. 
And I don't care to ask you how YOU KNOW because I KNOW how YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW? lol
I was going to be generous and give the parts to Johnny boy here but for some of the
he says, why should I. And trust me, I would take that car back in a heartbeat and still be smahing it down the street 
carry on.....

John a cool dude and so are you! So he said straight up he didn't wanna throw you under the bus, you came up like a man and said you sold it to him. So there no bullshit here. Between two stand up guys I can't see why you guys couldn't come to a agreement just to make peace or right.

You ******* made yourself look like the total *** you are and second made John look like a dumbass by what the **** you said. YOU ******* TARD!!!!!! I'm no GM tech or saying I'm the best in norcal, But I WOULD NEVER SAY I'M ONE OF THE BEST OR MY FRIEND IS ONE OF THE BEST AT SOMETHING but yet needs advice from a forum where novice people also come on here and ask the same questions and also give some advise and reall y don't know because they are going off what they heard.

And John< yeah cam is toast, if oil pressure is was still good like how sold to you and you said was good before pulling the cam. If you want to stay on a budget and I would say it would be ok to install another camshaft, and install new lifters, and I hope you also replace all your torque to yeild bolts that you take off.
I flatened my stock LS6 cam had good oil pressure before removing and installed my MTI X1 cam and ran good for 2 years.
and let me know when you get done with that car maybe we can have some fun and see what the difference is from how you "bought it" to with your new setup that you and saul had planned to put in "before" the purchase.

Even if I bought the car from you Tino, I would at least have the common sense to step back and say:
Hey, this guy built this car to go fast, had alot of power, made **** load of torque on the bottle, was ran with a bottle, had drag radials installed, stock bottom end. Who knows how much longer the block will last, but hey it is running solid right now and when i drove it around a few times it drove good.
NOW DO I WANT TO BUY A DAILY DRIVEN RACE CAR?????
I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO SAY NO, AND WALK AWAY.
OR I HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO SAY YES, BUT BEAWARE THIS IS NO 1 OWNER GRANDPA DRIVEN CAR WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES.
WOULD A SPEED SHOP GIVE YOU A WARRANTY ON A USED PERFORMANCE BEAST OF A CAR..................HELL NO!!!!
Hell some dealerships don't even warranty some of there high end speed performance vehicles.
