BTW here is a video of my cousin car & mines. We have all the same mods. I just don't have a cam and his car isn't any faster than mines with the hotrod cam he has. So more than anything I want a cam just for the sound of it.

I can't vouch for the other guys but I'm just busting your chops. Personally I don't see anything wrong with it. The main reason I have cams in mine is for the sound. I LOVE that sound! So go for it and have fun!

If your 2 cars have the same mods, and he has hot rods on top of that, there is no way he isn't faster. There has to be an issue with his tune because hot-rods do pickup some hp & tq through the curve.

I agree, but it could be a grip/traction issue as well, when your talking "faster". Try a roll on at 40mph and see what happens.

Don't know if it's a tune issue or not. Also I forgot to mention mine is a 5 speed his is a auto. And from a roll im a lil faster due to the fact of me being a 5 speed.

Im getting a cam soon anyway so that's the reason I asked the question about the tune. I really love the sound of a cam. I wasn't impressed at the performance side of the cam after his was installed.

Well like most mods cam's work when other components are present.
Headers particularly l/t's, and definatly cmdp's will get Max results. When I picked mine up after the install and stomped on it the first time, I about sh#t myself from the increase in power! She was blowing the covers off my 295's like never before in 2nd gear...get them, you will not regreat it!

That sounds pretty sweet. I think the power from a cam depends a lot on the tune. Who tuned your cousins car?


I have to wonder if these ghost cam tunes for the 5.0's are bad for the motor?

A shop in Stockbridge Georgia. Also he didn't get headers just the cam. So I'm guessing you need the cam/headers to really fill the difference.
