To those with HotCam experience!

3 Quick questions.

1) What stall math did you run with your TC? And how did it run on the highway and city driving?

2) Did you have to adjust the length of the dowel pin to avoid damaging your opti?

3) What length pushrods did you use?

I know i should measure the pushrod and dowel pin length. I do have the length checker, but i would like to see what the majority has done.

Thanks guys!!

1. I have a M6 but I would recommend a vigilante 2800 stall. What kind of rearend gears do you have? 2.73s,3.23s? If you have 3.23s I would stay with them.
2. I did not have to do any adjustment on the hot cam since the dowel pin measured the same my old cam
3. I used stock pushrods and lifters. Just make sure you inspect the pushrods to see if they are bent.

Just a guess, 350-360 rwhp? Does it matter? It should be a lot of fun to drive.

I don't know about dyno numbers, but mine will all the way to the 6500 limiter I have. Feels great - you'll like it but will also want more....
