F8L GT Posted April 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Right new, untuned, the car pulled pretty hard 1-4. Just has hard if not harder than it did before the cams with tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F8L GT Posted April 23, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 This thing pills pretty hard up to 120, but with the full rod end rear suspension, she's a little squirrely up top. I contacted Kevin at Baseline Suspensions and he's going to sponsor me a track locator to complement his upper control arms that I'm running in the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casper95svt Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 Nice work I like it a lot. I am a Master Ford tech, and used to get a lot of customers come to my house for cams on mod motors. I have a tool that you wedge in the timing chain and you can just use an impact gun on the cam gear and it saves a lot of time. Nice looking car you got there.

F8L GT Posted April 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 I've thought about the tool but I like to inspect the chains, tensioners and guides. Last thing I want is someone coming back for a ticking chain and being blamed since I was the last one in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
