ya I got another trans so that's fine, dropping it off for an ultrabell today or tomorrow. Pat G spec'd me a cam and said it was worth 15rwhp if I milled the heads and ran a thinner gasket so I was looking into getting that done, but I'd have to flycut then. Still be only 11.1:1 after the flycut since I'm running a LQ4 motor. Hopefully it runs alright, guess we'll see.

Chris you have a spare head to do the flycutting with? I might just stop out with the shortblock then shortly and have you do it. Or wait the 2 weeks, if you had the cam degreeing stuff as well?
