hehe..... not only are the GT40's going on... well... i swapped a cam in... it was the first weekend i was working on it... and it took me so long to get the heads off... well... that was when i was swapping the cam out... and at that point i decided not to take any pics cause i'd be too tempted to post it... well.....

so i did a big no no and didnt take pics... but oh well...

now for a lil something bout the cam... i dont know the specs... but it was a friends that he was fixing to swap into his 91 F150 w/351W but he totalled the truck...

its a custom ground cam for SD... w/ stock heads w/a bit of port work its supposedly able to get 300hp/350ftlbs..... smooth idling..

gotta get the stat sheet from him for it...

so im expecting to get a bit more since i have GT40's...

Lets hope you do.

 

[5.0Flareside]

im gonna try to get it on a dyno in the coming weeks...

 

[5.0Flareside]

hahaha Brad said he hates me... cause in the multiple phone conversations we've had i've never mentioned the cam to him...

 

[lil_dq]

Good when you get that done you can come up and help get the body off my truck so I can get started on the frame-off.

 

[5.0Flareside]

nah..... i'll pass.....

 

[lil_dq]

I don't blame you. I'm not even looking forward to it. may just have to get the new heads on it and drive it till I build the new house.

 

[F 150Cobra]

dynos can be hurtfull haha...

i wish u good luck... i am also racing to get it finish this sunday!

 

[flareside_thunder]

I knew you had a cam......yesterday when I saw your new avatar. I agree with Jurgen...dynos can be a mood killer but I hope you get the power you're wanting.

 

[O'Rattlecan]

Yeah try not to let the dyno get you down too much. It's all about what feels good and that seat-of-the-pants power you get. I'm excited for you, chump!

"Smooth idling" is soooo over rated.

"Smooth idling" is soooo over rated.

so is a lopey idle...

believe me i want a lopey idle... but that cant be achieve with my speed density setup... and also i dont want a lopey idle in this truck, i want it a daily driver that i can surprise the hell out of people with...
