Default Hot Rod Cams :)

It's been awhile since I posted in this section. I've only been on the carolina chapter here and there. But I've finally been able to do the mod I've been wanting to do since day 1...hot rod cams...and the wait was worth it. I love them!!! Here's the video...



And a new pic I took after I installed the cams and cleaned her up



If anyone has any questions on the install feel free to ask. After all I did it without any tools, besides the torque wrench.

How's the performance? I always heard you loose a bit of torque with the cams, but you gain everywhere else.

The car looks sweet by the way!

Honestly man I haven't even gotten into it yet. I'm breaking them in. But I have 4.10's so I dont really feel a loss of torque. I love them.

The 4.10s complement them nicely. With just the cams it was like vtec lol. Once I hit mid range it starts to pull. Gears get it in that powerband pretty quick. Wish I had a stall.
