Billy,
I once called my 6.0 "cam only" and was corrected rather quickly.
Still feel like you, it is a cam only motor with necessary mods to make it work.
heads are milled on an lq4 to get maybe 9.8/1...What is the compression on a stock ls1?
any one ever put a 5.3 head on an LS1 with a cam...is that considered cam only?
Any way, I now run a stock cube 346... :-)

it has a 8.8 in it thats been cut down a few inches on each side to run a more evenly offset rim...aje front end stuff and has the stock style rear suspension also with a anti roll-bar from team z...its even still got the factory rear shocks on it(until i can find a good deal on some adjustable ones)...thanks billy

i think people are accepting this type setup more and more as cam only,because i'm not catching to much flack anymore...the ford sites was the most aprehensive than anyone,now even they dont argue about it so much...congrats on your new set-up and keep us updated with your progress....thanks billy
