Default Tim's LS6 With Torquer Cam
Here is a short video of Tim's (SalvageZ28) LS6 engine that I built for him. It's got LS6 heads and a Torquer cam. This engine was a basket case, I literally got the pieces and parts in a milk basket lol... After a couple weeks of cleaning parts, sourcing needed parts and sorting through the "basket" I got her put back together again.

This vid shows the idle and few revs before any tuning. It should idle a bit better once it's tuned. Congrats Tim, she'll run pretty hard once tuned.

I'm doing heads here soon. Probably go with some Advanced Induction newly revised 243's which should put me in the 445-450 range.

So you are doing a 100 shot huh!?
