First impressions of the gm847
Wow. This thing is a monster. Today is my first day driving it and I was a little worried about cam surge, but I havent felt any yet. I only drove it a few times because the exhaust isnt bolted up yet, but i couldnt resist. A gm847 with open headers?!? The whole neighborhood came outside to see what the hell was going on! :D The only problem I have with it so far is that Ill definetly need tires soon.

You are about to be "MR. Popular" in your neighborhood with open headers. :D

other than that im just subscribing b/c my next cam is the GM847 |
Let us know how you like it once it's all together and tuned up, especially in the typical driving rpms(1500-3000 rpm).
That cam is a monster up top, and will turn a lot of heads. Dan |
Hopefully some of your neighbors are gearheads and will appreciate what you have done.:D Any plans for the dyno or track?
|
Thats awesome. I'm putting in a GM847 this summer too, that cam is a beast.
|
I am definetly taking it to the track, but I need to get a clutch first. The exhaust should be together this evening. I'l let you guys know how it behaves.
|
i run duals with single chamber flowmasters and my neighbors were joke about sending out a letter to the neighborhood to get funds to buy different mufflers for my car. :)
|
I got everything bolted up and it sounds good. That thing pulls HARD up top. Its feels weird to lose traction in the middle of 2nd gear. It has a tiny bit of surge below 1800 rpms, but its hardly noticable. I think it has good street manners, maybe because I have a 6 speed. And I love the looks people give me at traffic lights! I cant wait to pull up next to a mustang or somebody else that needs to be humbled!:D
