Aruns Jam Cam finally installed...

Aruns great.... Hooked me up with parts for the Trunion upgrade, new timing chain, melling oil pump and of course the famous jam cam kit... Now I just need to get blown...

Sorry about the lighting but it was 11:30 at night and I just had to start it and see if my work was suspect

. Go to 30 seconds as I had last second jitters cause a brain fart before start up

Taryn your car sounds great. I'm not familiar with Aruns - care to elaborate? Also, who are you going to get to tune your car? Would be interested in some feedback on shop and price when you get it done.

Heya Jack (well played sir)and Travis thank you both for the compliment. Arun's "Jam Cam" or stage 3 Forced Induction cam is on a lope profile that's not hard on the valves like a N/A cam would be when you add a supercharger to the mix. Depending on what you want when you talk to him dictates how he tinkers with the numbers. There seems to be a range that he stays within but you definitely have options. It's funny because I told him I want some ear candy like if the Gran Torino idling before the first race in the movie "Need for Speed" and Y2KVert4Me's video idling with the G5x4 had a baby.... That's what I wanted mine to sound like. The power gained is a given with Arun thus the name of the cam because it makes "Jam"..

Jack to have it tuned I am going to see the LS tune wizard Justune. He tunes out of "The RestoMod Store" in Independence. He charges $350 to get her dialed in so we will see what happens

I will post a video with the cutouts open tomorrow or the next day... It's crazy

Of course Jack!

I actually broke my cell phone a couple days ago and a new one should be to my house tomorrow. If you could give me til then then I will send you over his info. He's a great person even cooler than his wizardry with the LS engines.

I try very hard to keep mine close unless I'm messing with a loud motorcycle. My hearing test wasn't so good last time so now when I open them I have my ear plugs in lol

I love it. I'm just a little more cautious when I have them open not a big deal. A blower car and cutouts are insane at wot!

That sounds insanely good. I'm constantly rethinking this thunder racing 224R 112lsa cam I have sitting under the bed waiting for the funds to free up and be installed. Can you share the specs on that "jam cam"?
