Re: Sorry Guys, Another cam thread.

Comp Hardened ones are only like $30, definately worth the money. I did those for my 1.6 NSA 7/16" Pro Mag and LT4 springs install. I think they are 7808-16 for the part number. Yes, 7.200, and dont let Summit tell you thats not the right length, cause it is....damn kids..

I wasn't talking about hardened pushrods.... REAL pushrods are 4130 steel 1 piece pushrods.

Christ he's not going to ask the guy for specs on a rocket, he's going to give the tech guy his lift and other figures on the cam and have them suggest springs.

True, but Comp's tech support still sucks ***. I spent a damn month calling EVERYDAY until I got somewhere about my Comp R failure.

Re: Sorry Guys, Another cam thread.

Any info on a cam for the LT1.. as well as what the different words mean. I'd suggest checking this website out.

I wasnt really refering to anyone's post, but how much are those pushords and would they be overkill for something like a Hotcam?
