Unless you have a HUGE cam, or are running a stroker motor, you would be more benificial with 1 3/4 on a stock cubed motor.

i do plan on camming my motor after the headers/y pipe, but nothing major, its my daily driver.

also, i dont remember where i read about this, but when i put headers/ory on my car, with stock drivetrain/cam do the headers alone require an ecu tune?

I got a free ticket to firebird but if we do go (which I doubt) then we won't be racing

who went to the track? we didnt even really go out to bell, we hung out with some friends at there place, and we made 1 run in joeys t/a and this civic and celica come up on us, start playing with us, and the civic seems to be pretty confident, but we soon run out of room to play... then the celica comes and says "dude, that civic will walk you"... we are like ?????? so we get next to the civic, give the go and pull his *** like nothing, given we had 3 people in the car, and nearly half a tank of gas, the civic that would "walk us" did nothing to put up a fight, then they even have the nerve to come up to us and say "its only a single cam"... ya well, the ta is only stock. and then a 6cyl. mustang driven by a fat girl trying to be a hardass starts messing with us, like it could even stand a chance. they would do a ricer fly by and stare at joeys car like its nothing, hahaha... ill have you know we pulled them too, numerous times. hahhaa, pretty interesting night.

Yeah I ran at firebird last night...the track sucked big time. I'll stick to speedworld. One of my runs the car made a nasty noise throught the exhausht and died. After that the car wouldnt trap over 110mph. So I figure its the track and call it a night. Tonight I went out to speedworld for a few passes. The first run the car trapped 110 again. So i give it another try and nothing at all, car still wont trap over a 110. On my 5th run I go to do my burnout and I hear a nasty missfire from the car. I procede with the run and get nothing more than a 110 again. I get back to the pits and pop the hood to see if there is anyhting wrong. A rev the car up and hear a nasty metalic noise coming from the right side valve cover. So here in a few I'm going to pull the valve cover and see what surprise awaits.

No still wokring on it. Threw the valve train back in the car this morning and the noise was gone Now the damn computer resets its self everytime the car gets shut off. It had to relearn the idle and LTFT's. I'm ready to shoot this car. I guess the car does not like the track as much as me.
