Default Got her back :)

Finally got her back from Lashway Motorsports in Pompano, extremely happy with the results... plenty of power for daily driving and the cam behaves very well on the street.

Btw, she behaves very well, even in this crazy Miami traffic. Today I went through 1 hour of stop as go traffic and had 0 issues, a little less mpg but that was expected!

Very nice. That cam was a good choice for a daily driver, super mild. It also likes nitrous too... I had that cam in my old camaro.
