He's nipping at your heels, not mine. That will be 2 local LT1 n/a cars stomping the cam-only LSJuan, lol.

Keeping my fingers crossed that your pan gasket doesn't tear when you drop it. You should be finished pretty quick from this point. Thanks for the update. This has been one of my favorite threads on here.

True he is going to a better cam here on page 9, but you've got to give him props for running the number (and then some) by making the most of what he already had. I'm glad to see the change, but will always wish I could have seen it go even deeper into the 10's on the cc503 with an adj. TQ arm, rear shocks, and a better 60'. This car is awesome.

I can't wait to see what my car does when it goes from 3400 to sub 3100 with a bigger cam, better heads, and 50 more hp added on top of the 350 we're spraying now...

Ok the cam is in and im in the reassembly stage. I went to put the msd opti back on and when i pulled the cap off one of the rotor screws fell out. I guess im lucky the rotor didnt fall off and i found my mysterious timing data logs

While it's torn down that far....is there any way you could try your alternator mount on the driver's side? Or just look and see if you think it would fit if you just flipped it around. I would really appreciate it, but you will probably be past that by the time you read this.
