    Cam installed

    Well I just installed my cam last night 3 hours 45 min including a sea lab 2021 break and a girlfriend break. The peformance is quite a difference and for the price you cannot beat it. I took a bunch of pics so I will be writting up a how too for the board. But I am hoping a moderator will host the pics because my server has such limited bandwith. So if their are any takers tell me and I will resize them and post them with a faq and you guys can move it.

    Which cam did you get again? I'm curious to know how it affects you gas mileage also.

    I'll be happy to put up the how to and the pics. He got the triflow grind from Colt. And if you were to compare fuel economy to before and after the cam install driving the exact same way before and after, you should see about a 8-10% increase in fuel economy.

    Wait untill I get the how too up also you will need a torque wrench and you might want to pick up a haynes manual. If you have any questions I may be able to answer them. I am very pleased with it and will be selling my cam core soon.

    I do not know my 0-60 but it is much better as for the tranny have a full rebuilt 88 LXi tranny with centerforce DF clutch. I really like the clutch I gave it the proper break in time and now it grips like mad never slips an inch.
