JoeliusZ28's LT1 cam swap thread

[SoulTerror]

Sounding good.

[JoeliusZ28]

Your making good progress. At this rate you could be done by the 4th

I wont be working on it any this weekend, i plan to have the big push next weekend. The parts are shipping out today, and Im coming out to GV this weekend anyway

On the downside... i dont see this thing ever going back together right The more beer we drank last night the less pictures of things we were taking, and frankly i picked up more than a few things I have no idea where the hell they came from

[Superman09]

lmao, i know that feeling. Youll figure it out in the end.

What are 374 heads?

[JoeliusZ28]

they are one of the "preferred" castings to have on an LT1. Lots of meat for porting (2nd most i think) and the highest compression ratio. The latter is probably what makes 95 LT1s seem to run the best. I think 374s came on some 94s too, id have to research it.

[Superman09]

ah cool, well port them bishes!

[JoeliusZ28]

im not porting them, thats too much cash. im just going to clean them up, install new seals and mill them down a little for some more pop

5) *(^&*)^ that wire that has to run across the top of the engine

6) I think i am going to delete AIR and EGR cause they suck.

So why are you going with a GM opti?

[JoeliusZ28]

Ive read of problems with MSDs and I cant afford a dynaspark yet.
