billet cam? or billet rockers?

from what I've heard, the billet rockers aren't neccesarily better than the IE HDs. at least, not 4x better to match their 4x cost increase. The scandanavian guys are using the HDs.. one of the things IE actually got right. :)

Nah, the Billet IE Cam.

I want to pick up the HD rockers from IE as well for that reason, I hear good things about em!

So are you running a stock eta bottom end, or a seta?

Stock bottom end, gotta do that soon...

Thank you for painting your engine a proper color.

What sort of mileage are you getting?

:D

Since when is a 272 regrind a huge cam? Another thing to consider about a regrind cam is that it makes the already unfavorable rocker ratio/lift curve even worse. They are cheaper,though. Engine looks good and sounds nice!

My buddy did the description but the cam is pretty damn beefy. Thanks!!

Suspence,

I've watched the evolution of your car with much interest. Early on I didn't know hw things were going to turn out, but you've certainly done things properly, especially given your budget constraints mentioned in another thread.

Cliff's notes: WELL DONE!!

Thank you! I really appreciate it, I'm trying to get this car proper.

You did the work at Marco Polo? I recognize that alley haha. Sounds and looks awesome so far! Keep it up

Yep haha, my buddy Forrest used to work there and now my good friend Ian works there... they all do awesome work and hook it up fat.

Interesting... you sure it is a 272? Sounds waaaay wilder than that... even a 284/272 doesn't idle that lumpy.

Yeah pretty sure it's a 272, came with the car when I bought it and after 2 years finally used it haha. Once again the cam is super beefy.

Thanks to everyone for the love! LSD is in process over the next few weeks, looking for a 391.

for that price I'd be looking at catcams rather than IE

Anyone have an LSD for sale? Looking for something higher than a 373 please.

I believe his car is a 88 Super Eta.

I'd really stick with the 3.73 if I were you, try it and you'll see.

Haha nice, yeah my car has been there numerous amount of times. But it's finally how I wanted it! After the LSD I'm pretty much set....... sorta

Yeah it's an ETA block from what I know, I'm going to do something big with the bottom end hopefully this year. Maybe 3.1 or something. 3.73 sounds good to me but my buddy who drove the car said 3.91 would be perfect for the power. Guess we will see!
