Anyone have TR224/224 in an M6 in Northern Va?
Thinking about getting a TR224/224 cam and I just wanted to know if anyone has it on stock heads in my area..and would be willing to let me feel it out?

That's the cam I'm goin' for in a few months. Hopefully I see some nice gains with it and other mods combined.
Will I need to get it tuned after it's installed? Or should it be good to go "as is"?

I don't mean to hijack the thread or anything but I've been lookin for a place in Northern VA that does cam installs and what not, because I'm lookin to get a cam real soon as well (as a matter of fact the TR224). All I can come up with is the Woodbridge Dynotech that said they'd charge like 1500 for everything..... uhhh I don't have that kind of money. Anyone else know of anything?

While we're on the subject of places in VA to get work done... which would you all recommend to diagnose the following problem: when I shift into second at higher engine RPM's, it grinds like the clutch isn't even engaged... sometimes it does it and sometimes not but I can't afford to let this keep happening the way it is grinding... who should I trust around here to help fix this/possibly install new shift compenents or a clutch? I'm really at a loss for someone to depend on around here. My guy that I trusted just packed up and moved off

You could try the Midas in Annandale. My son Danny works there and does all the work on our 2000 Firebird Formula. The manager Kenny drives a '98 Camaro and also has modded out his car.
Annandale Midas - 703-354-7000 Ask for Kenny

I'd be up for that! I know there is an F-body club that meets at Hooters in Fairfax... But i think the later friday evening the better due to traffic around 8 or 9pm...Let's see what we can plan!
