Just had new camshaft installed
Well I just had a new camshaft installed on my 1972 GMC. What a difference it has made. Like driving a whole new truck.

Re: Just had new camshaft installed
For starters, the truck doesn't feel like it wants to die every time you sitting at a red light. I always had to put it in neutral when I was in that situation. That is the biggest change that I have noticed so far.
