I know this might be a lame subject but I'm gonna post it up, better than hearing guys argue about old and new class cars.
I just left my garage after starting my old Torino after an oil change and man I tell you, I have never heard a better sounding Hydraulic Flat Tappett cam in all my years of following class racing. When I put my Torino back together I was trying to do it on a budget. My racing dad and friend for life John Douglas helped me build my new engine. When discussing cam choices he says to me I have two brand new cams that you can choose from but they are identical lol. John ran a 72 HO Mustang in H/S and had two brand new in the box Cam Dynamics Hydraulic Flat tappet cams. I was skeptical at firsrt because these cams were/are low lift, smaller than the old solid Crane I ran but at $50 I couldn't go wrong. Wow! Man this Cam Dynamics Hydraulic sounds so damn good! The average Joe thinks it is a roller and when I tell them it's a hydraulic flat tappet they can't believe it.
My last one is the shaft I had in my old Super Stock Cleveland. I fought that thing for about a year trying to make it work but I came to the determination it wouldn't work with an automatic. I tell you what though, that Lunati Solid Roller sounded like popcorn. I still have it and I plan on using it some time in the near future. It may not work but I can guarantee you one thing, it might scre someone into thinking it's fast cause it sounds good lol!
Have a good night friends!
