It smooths out quite a bit when its warm, which disappointed me a little.

I would happily trade it for a boosted mustang if you prefer the simplicty of a single cam, pre-installed. Just sayin.

It came back, but I'm really not worried about it. I'm assuming its storing it on startup, and either way I'm going to need to just take it in to get tuned correctly. I'm probably going to hold off...

Picked up a random misfire code yesterday... I cleared it and it hasn't come back YET.. but I looked at my fuel trims today and I need a TUUUUUUNE! lol

Nice part is it fired right up with the tune I "borrowed" off the HPT repository, but yeah, definitely took a couple minutes for it to settle in.

Well, either I was just being overly sensitive last night, or it sounds MUCH smoother today. definitely pulls well to 4000rpm, which is as high as I've taken it yet. Going to give it a couple more...

Well, after a grueling 12 hours, the cam is in.

Also, I think I somehow lost my 15/16 when I was doing my radius rod bushings.

the ARP bolt is a 12 pt, otherwise I would probably cheat that way.

Yeah, I've got a 1/2" breaker, and I think the gas pipe I'll be picking up for us as (imagine this) gas pipe, should do the trick. I don't have my compressor moved to my house yet, but I may be...

This is probably the biggest job I've done to date, so I've done all the prep humanly possible for it. Only thing that comes close was an engine swap I did in my Isuzu Impulse back in the day, and...

72" steel dowel was <$4... woulda bought alloy if they had it, but this should work.

Yeah, I have a reinstall tool a buddy who used to have a cammed TA gave me. I'm told the job can be done without removing the bumper, just have to pull the rad and get the condenser out of the way.

Putting a cam in my GTO next weekend, if anybody wants to swing buy and pitch in a hand. With the cam, or drinking beer.
