  • We'll get it in there rolo, no worries.

    I went with vinyl on the stripes again, paint is, well permanent.

    Just got back from picking my car up, the only word that comes to mind is, WOW.

    My car has never scared me before, until today. First appears to be useless on the street, as well as the first half of 2nd, lol. Already put over 100mi on it and still cannot comprehend the amount of power thats on tap. It pull SOO hard, and just keeps going and going and going. Every time I put my foot down its like damn, then I look down and see were doing an easy 100... Just wow.

    The car truly is a whole nother animal. Phil did an absolute spot on job with the tune, no more surging and stalling at stop lights, and it goes like a raped ape! So much more enjoyable to drive, 1000x better than before. Anyone can drive this car now.

    Cannot wait for the track and dyno!

            • 3.42s rolo.

              The 5.3 now belongs to Ridings, ill let him divulge any more info if he chooses to. But it will be see a good new life thats for sure. I almost kept it to put in my cj-7, but the good ole AMC 304 purs like a kitten so, might as well keep it original.

              Not at all regretting the cam choice, I cant put the power I make now to the ground, unless im moving at 60+ mph, its just a tire fire if I put the pedal to the floor. And your grandma could drive it

              I am now a firm believer in "Theres no replacement for displacement"

                • If I can afford to, absolutely!

                  I will say this, the car for sure drinks some gas! Got about 200mi out of the first tank. This may not be to bad, but for the last 6 months, im used to the Regal getting 4-600 lol.
