Just finished my first cam!
A few months ago, I had installed XSP long-tube headers. These past two weeks I installed a 160* thermostat, Blackwing, and TSP 228r cam.
This was not my first major engine work by any means, but it was my first major work on an LS1.
I thought I would share a video of the car idling, a few minutes after first start. I am getting it tuned this week by New Era here in Rochester.
