:laugh::laugh:

My motor is already on a par with Mikes (I actually downgraded to his cam a while back ;)), his car just weighs 500lbs less than mine does. (and has about $50,000 more of suspension, transmission and braking work done).

It would be quite difficult to duplicate his car for less than about $175,000...

And?

Before I downgraded my motor to his cam my motor was putting out a lot mor power and torqie thatn his was.

The key to the speed of his car is the 2600lbs and suspension carved from solid unobtanium.. ;)

cool transmission. and carbon fiber dash. what engine management is he running? I would assume that the engine in the car was built for a bit more reliability and abuse that your average street vette as well?

Don't tease people like that.... they might believe you....

It's a single cam in block pushrod V8... the only way to make power :)

Nice rediscovery! That's what makes so many of the older V8 engines sound better than many of the new ones . . . camshafts with some decent duration on them. Too many LS1 guys try to make all of their power with big lift and only a little more duration. I absolutely love the sound my TA makes from idle at 750 rpm with its 268 degrees of duration. (That's the advertised figure, not the duration @ 0.50 lift . . . if anyone cares, here are the specs for the camshaft I'm running: http://www.compcams.com/Cam_Specs/CamDetails.aspx?csid=1171&sb=2)

Lope has nothing to do with "balance".

Nothing.

The engine in that video was "balanced and blueprinted" - the lope you are witnessing is purely the result of the cam shaft grind.

I should know, thats my old setup ;)

Yep, yep, my TA's engine's bobweights are all equal to the gram.
