MylilBowTie · 04-20-2004, 06:44 PM

Looks like it just wants to jump in my camaro.

low 84 · 04-20-2004, 06:50 PM

oh yeah, i forgot to say that the tpi on top ISN'T mine

its my friends that we had sitting in the shop so we sat it on there. don't think a stock tpi setup would be too happy on a solid cammed 408. the "changes" i was talking about are internal. should have it running this week

just had to mess with you guys

SCOTI · 04-20-2004, 06:59 PM

What did you change internally? And, I'm sure everyone is wondering...... why ?????

ocbaud · 04-20-2004, 07:00 PM

i was about to say, damn. i had thought you were getting a holley built to spec for you

Izzy · 04-20-2004, 08:01 PM

Good to see he's coming along with the TPI and good to hear your motors nearly done.

bigger cam, more compression, fully ported heads...........not driving it everyday so........why not?

r0lf- · 04-20-2004, 09:05 PM

Jesus. I would be scared to drive that beast! Sounds like my kinda motor.

SCOTI · 04-20-2004, 09:16 PM

What were your times w/the previous smaller cam, unported heads, and lower compression? How much HP/TQ were you putting down to the RW?

Are you selling off your old stuff?

gldevall · 04-20-2004, 10:43 PM

Where's the money tree? LOL Looking good. NOw you need to work on the rear end. 4.56's!!

don't know times or hp or anything. i don't get caught up in that stuff. i want it to throw me back in the seat and scare old ladies. all it did was spin with the old setup so i'm sure it will just do that now, but i have some plans in the works that will take care of that. i don't really have any parts to sell, all i did was have my dart heads that were already on it fully ported and shaved down to 59cc chambers, then i swaped out the cam for the bigger solid.

no money tree here, haven't spent any money on it since last summer and having an economical daily driver helps to save some up for this
