Uh oh....Lost my motor somewhere...
IT just jumped out and ran away... 
My motor was finally pulled today, and tomorrow morning will be going to the machine shop to begin the rebuild/beef up process. nothing fancy just a step above stock or so.
Plans for it are:
polished runners (outside)
port matched runners, intake, plenum
Voodoo Cam 60101lk
with 148K on the clock, boring it 30 over
unknown on the crank/rods
stock rods.
raising compression to 10:1
it's not much but its a step up from stock
Hoping for 400TQ at wheels.
I dont care about HP, since I'll never be in that part of the power band
and TQ rules 
anyone ever run the 60101 cam? or heard it idle out?
since Im planning a car show on 8-27-11 in memory of my father, this has been pushed to the front of the line VIA the machine shop and repair shop. My fathers vette is being worked on too (via me) needs radiator supports mounted and brakes. and it'll be semi drivable (needs clutch redone from sitting 25 years)
Anywho, back to the farm.
I have a ton of pictures, as soon as I get them uploaded I will post some here! IM very excited and anxious!
The reason I went with the 60101 cam is, I have it on hand NIB...works with TPI without a tune?, and it's supposedly a decent cam for a TPI??
what combination are you running with TQ/HP outputs?
And what do you think of the combo Im planning?
Heard a lot of good from a slightly modded stock TPI system.. input?
