Default Plz Help!

i'm looking for some info on a red 2000 z28 that was bought from a guy in houston the summer of 2004.
it was sent to a guy in kentucky via semi truck car hauler. i got it off of him and asked what cam size it had. he didn't know..

mods and options...
fully loaded red 2000 z28 m6
borla exhaust
cam???
had nitrous at some point..
valve covers painted red
kenny brown double d sfc's
bmr tubular lca's
bmr adjustable track bar
had the snowflake rims with dunlops
lowered with eibach's (i think)
tuned by Houston Performance (i think)
hole in the driveshaft tunnel and busted console (must've launched like a ****)
had a "houston performance" sticker on the back window
it had more mods i'm sure but they were stripped off when the car was sent.
cracked windshield

the info i'm looking for is...
1. what cam is in this car?
2. who tuned it?
3. what numbers did it run at the track?

i really don't wanna tear into it to find what cam and i don't give a damn who had it. not looking for names. any help would be greatly appreciated... again it was sold the summer of 2004.
u can pm me with the info or reply here. don't really matter.. thnx

Houston Performance Driving would be a good place to look. Post this there and just try some archive searches to see if you can't find it. If the sticker indicates the previous owner was a member, I'm sure he posted there or someone knows about it. The site has been down due to upgraded servers, but G-Z06 said it should be back up soon. Good luck! https://ls1tech.com/forums/texas-members/688709-hpd-switching-servers.html

there is a chance that nobody really knows the car. houston is a rather large town. alot bigger than glasgow ky i am sure. the shop is your best bet.

Just keep trying Houston Performance... they have to pick up eventually. I dyno'd my lt1 there a few years back. They are mainly a Mustang shop, so if you tell them you had a red ss with a lopey cam and the Berger mod, I'm sure they'll remember who's it was.

Way more stangs go through there than fbodies... so each fbody is probably more recognizable. If it was MTI or HPE, you may never find out.
