But I'd sure like to pay your property taxes instead of mine. Nothing wrong with living in small town Iowa, besides I was born in Oskaloosa a few years back, ha,ha.

BCNUL8R: What did you end up doing with all your nitrous? In the market to get some put on my car!
I'm hoping its nice enough to head to the track this friday. I'm wanting to race the car but the 10bolt don't seem like its gonna hold up to much longer. I'll be there watching if i'm not racing though!

Nice ride Nytehawk. The WS6's have always been sharp in black. Check out JoshP's post and bring that thing to the get together in Norwalk.

I've been selling it piece by piece. I've still got a ten pound bottle with brackets, msd window switch, solenoids, and some misc. fittings left. I also have a full mother bottle if anyone in my area needs a bottle filled. Once the bottles empty I will sell the filling station.

Just to name some of the more important mods.

The front tires are bald in those pics, but where recently changed.

Not the greatest pics.
I see you have the same wheels I do, you have problems with your clear coat? I have had mine two + years, and the clear started coming off, maybe 7000 miles on them is all and no winters and the clear is spotting off. They wont cover anything over a 1 year warrenty, dicks.... Might be a winter project to try to fix them up, its just my rears. Good looking car, but I have a biased opinion with the wheels!

Who hear travels North through Madrid everyday about 7 ish? I have asked before, but thought I would ask again.

Lot going on here, havent been on in awhile and I see I missed alot!


BCNUL8R, nice set up! Ive seen your car at Eddy before this, and I cant wait to see it again on the new setup!

OH yea, college starts up again this monday and I still havent made it down for a ride, just too damn busy....
The car will be here for awhile yet, so maybe one of these days?!?!

Most cams have specs listed like this : 228/230 .588/.588 112LSA. The first set of numbers is the cams duration in degrees intake valve vs. exhaust valve, the second set is it's lift (in inches) which is also intake valve vs. exhaust valve and the last number is the lobe separation angle which is difference in degrees between the peak events. If you can list all these specs for the cams you're looking at, what your power goal is and what you're willing to put up with driveability wise.

You have a HUGE variety of cams listed there, you need to figure out what you want... There is plenty of info on cams in the correct sections of the site. Just remember, bigger is not always better, peak dyno #s are not the best things to judge a cam off of. Big # cams are hard on valve train parts...
