3 weeks is a long time sadly mines been down for 8 months.

 

good point....


****...with mike's history...3 weeks is usually longer than he owns a car

 

lol that's like me, I'm 20 and I'm on my 5th camaro(hopefully this one is staying)

 

Using the Ram Powergrip HD. Nice clutch with nice engagement.

 

Remember my 396 LT1? That thing was parked in my driveway for about a year and a half after I broke the oil pump driveshaft.

Allan "snuck" me in, so the car has really been finished for over a week, but I've been waiting for Cam Motion to grind the cam the entire time....their CNC machine went coo-coo and needed to be fixed.

That was the main holdup.

 

True enough.

 

I think that was before I joined here. The first car I remember was your heads+cam Vette.

 

I remember that pos camaro, **** was weak as hell.......

Then again that was along time ago......things have come along way since then. Long ways........

 

Ahahahahhahhahah. Ran awesome for 3760lbs w/o driver and LT1 heads and intake. It was built in 2000.

I was running a hot cam back then.....

 

wasn't it one of the first 396 LTx engines on the board. pretty cutting edge if i remember correctly.

then you got into the habit of buying/selling when the oil got dirty...or when the wiper fluid got low...which ever came first

 

That's right, bitch. Shut your dirty **********.

 

Yep. I had that car for around 4 years.. That's the longest I've ever owned the same car IIRC.

 

Whats the spring life like with a high lift cam?

I've been thinking about going w/a Cam motion grind when I do my 6L swap which may end up being a 408 swap (still undecided).

 

Good springs will last tens of thousands of miles. I don't believe the hype of changing springs every 15-20k on an aftermarket cam buildup... It's a hydraulic roller afterall and this isn't 1930 when cars needed a full rebuild after 15,000-20,000 miles.
