Nice cars guys! Thanks for sharing the videos. Gotta get me one of those hoods but worried about the paint. Silver is a bitch to match and it look like the robot who painted my car was infected with Malware

That's just it... My car is so blotchy with uneven flake, I'm afraid the guy who paints the hood might do a good job and it won't match. Thinking about just getting inserts to get a look similar to what you and Unreal have and avoiding any paint all together. Just can't seem to find the right ones.....but didn't spend a ton of time looking

So if you had to do it over would you pick the same cam? I'm getting a new one, mine was 230 233 115 lsa I want to go more aggressive on the new one.

Yes. Idles at 800rpm, could go lower. Can lug around at 700-800rpm without issue. Makes power like I want. Does everything I asked for.

And unlike other people, I've driven a ton of different cams. Had 4 different cams in this car alone.

Rained all weekend. Fixed the hose, has to test drive it. So just did 30 miles out in the rain.

Took the down time to paint the pipes. Few coats of krylon. New AC Delco hose instead of cheap bando or whatever it was. Noticeable thicker and nicer.

For people worrying about vented hoods, only water that was in there was when I popped hood and it then poured down on to the radiator. Was as dry as could be, not that it matters since water doesn't hurt anything.

Man, you gotta have some big cajones to drive that thing in the rain.
And that engine room literally couldn't hold another bolt in it!

It has been fine on my Akrapovic system too. Never had an issue with my stock ones either.

Stock had no issues. I think it is just the material/valves on the B&Bs. Akro uses stock actuators.

Weather cleared up. Will try to get some more "fun" videos this week.

I'm guessing he meant 6, not 3. He's a bit slow though.

Nope, 100% sure that is exactly whats on the cam card. That is cam lift, not valve lift.
