Its alot of cam, but it seemed to like it... Car left hard, and i doubt the 750 qjet was really giving the engine what it needed... Next time its in the car, i'd love to try a 950 on it...or a really good 800cfm qjet, that has been modded heavily to be more than 800cfm.

Put the 350 turbo up in the car today... Engine is ready to pull, but i wanted to get trans in first, to see how my driveshaft would be, if mine would work. I dont believe it will, as tthe trans is about 1/2'' or so shorter than the 400. How come nobody told me that i would need to notch the crossmember, to clear the deep aluminum pan?

I hope to have engine out, and put new cam in it, by the weeks' end. All im waiting on is my lifters to come back from coating, and Im in business. And i have to build a driveshaft, im pretty sure. Should i go 3'' or 3 1/2''? I have 1350 joints and hardened Strange yoke.

Thanks Al, and Richard! RIchard, Your Camaro looks mighty fine, too... Hope you have some fun with it, and get that 327 back in there soon... Anxious to see how much you improve, over last year... My engine will come out Saturday... and i will hopefully have cam in and degreed by Sunday, and putting head back on... just waiting on lifters, from coating in Chicago, then i can finish it up...and an order to Jegs, for some break in oil and cam assy lube. If i can pick anything up, we'd probably be a good heads up race!

You should bring your car to Bowling Green in June for the Hot Rod Reunion Brent...you would have a blast.
