very nice, did you install it yourself or did the car come that way? I got the ms4 on my table ready to go in right now just wondering how much experience with cam installs you have had?

It was my first time messin with internal engine work. It was actually very easy. The hardest part was changing the dam oil pump. I had to tear everthing apart a second time because I screwed the oring up the first time I put in on. Other than that it was a piece of cake.

hey guys...who are some good tuners or shops in the Omaha area in regards to Corvette's or just LSx motors in general? Especially one with a dyno. I had my work done at Straightline in Chicago and they do great work but if I only have to drive 120-130 miles instead of 250 miles to get future work done, that would be much better. Thanks.
