Baby cam to drive the valves. Cams are only secrets when they do not work

I have had LE do many sets with great luck. We have installed a many sets of AI. From a non biased stand point they perform very simularly. I have LE 210 AFRs on the wifes car and it runs great for the little money we have in it. I ran 10s N/A with a set of LE heads long before it became common place

This set was done by Mikes Head porting service back east. Not that I do not trust LE or AI but they do not do this style head every day like the place I had them done.

They started Life as Brobix -18 Spead port heads. They flowed over 340 as cast

After doing alot of searching and wanting to keep it streetable I could not justify an extra $850 for after maket spindles(AND needed parts for change over)to save 5lbs.

So I went with straight up Wilwood LS1 replacement brake package. They are bigger then my old stock LT1 brakes but not as big as my LS1 brakes. They blot on to stock LS1 spindles. I went with vented rotors for short tracks and street use.

So I saved $850 but only lost 4lbs per side. I gained another 6lbs per side for the back brakes.....and I think it was another 46 for the new rear end setup over my old 12 bolt




OH YEAH. Spendy under cut Ferra valves
