I only drive the Formula to school.
Danny and Chris (the guy with the pewter C5 Ron was talking about) installed the cam. I haven't dynotuned it yet though, so I dont have numbers yet.
I know Danny at OCGMP, but if you have read, somethings going on with him and the shop, I dont know whats going on there.

Cam install is not that difficult. Just take your time, do it right, the first time.

My homie has a shop close by and has put together a couple of nice boosted Vettes. He just finished up an APS Twin Turbo Z06 about a month ago.
