Yeah. The "good deal" on the 7.1 ain't so good. They've replaced 1, now this one is crashing all the time.

I'm just going to get a new one, so I can at least be the one responsable for breaking it, lol

no mor pre-broke crap.....

Saturday, every day? If that's true, I'd have to move there, if it weren't for the crappy gun laws.

Hopefully Charlie remembers to check on that cam today...i'm getting the itch to do some engine work.

I did!!!!

Intake and carb are still here, but they are for a windsor, so that's not good news.

Cam is as follows;

Hydr flat tappet
351 c- boss 351-351 m-400
part # VS320-16
grind 10329
Use 1.73 rocker arm
Lift-Intake 2800 @ valve 484
lift-Exhaust 2947 @ valve 510

Intake cam timing- at tappet-1050 opens 58 btdc closes 29* abdc
Max lift 107*atdc 204 durration

Exhaust-1050 opens-44*btdc closes 10*btdc
max lift 117*btdc 214* durration

DO NOT USE WITH EXHAUST VALVE ROATORS



This may be too nasty of a cam to be practical in a truck..... Tim?????

you definately will need a vacuum can reserve for your power brakes
