So I have the weekend off work and figure I can get my new comp cams in tonight, so my buddy and I head out the garage around 3 and start workn. We were really coming along got the pulling the cams out when i noticed the sprockets on the cams i have are not bolted on so i wouldnt have a cam gear! so luckily i had saved the old npi heads and those had the sprockets with bolts all is good right.........wrong! the bolts that hold the cam gear on are the wrong size, they dont fit into the comps. I was sooo mad and by this time its 1030 and nowhere is open to find a bolt that will fit! I was soo mad, I probably woulda had those cams in and been driving it now!

 

Damn man... that sucks. Best of luck to you.

 

yea I got that same problem. When i installed my o/r pipe and lowering springs Thats last bolts were rusted and it was a bitch to get off.

 

what comps? dang dude your gonna have a beast of a turd on your hands [sm=smiley20.gif] unsuspecting 99+'s = [sm=smiley18.gif]

 

It'll be sweet when she's done and your damage to 99+ GT's will be funny. Every 94-98 GT in my area gets taken to school, I ran up on a yellow 98 GT one day and we raced...so close. I would always pull him 1st & 2nd gear and 3rd he would catch right back up and inch by me, found out he had a 99 Cobra swap [&:]

 

lol...gotta love the sleeper effect. I have some wild plans for the '96 which is gonna hurt a whole lotta '99+ ego around where I live.

 

Welp, did you get them in?

 

well, i got the bolts this morning, the cams are in, I just have to torque them and then re assemble, but have to finish when i get back from school. I cant wait except there is still snow and ice on the ground Ill just have to find a dry spot! I got the comp 262ah, and ya ive beat acouple 99+ GT's and the look on their face is priceless, I cant even imagine with the cams in!

 

hey stone, what is your timing set @?

 

set at 14 right now, and accutally i just got the cams in the sound and feel awesome havent been able to tap into it yet cuz of the weather, but itll pull hard. only problem is it wants to die at idle, could that have anything to do with the timing? i know its gonna run alil ruff, but these are mild grind so im thinkn somthns wrong
