I like it. Did you install it at 109 ICL?

Yes, I believe so. The builder of the motor 15 years ago said it was installed 3 degrees advanced, and when I replaced the original cam, I used the same exact cam (Mellings RA IV) used the old cam sprocket and lined it up exactly the same.
Like I said, the car is very strong off the line, even with only a 2200 stall Continental converter and 3.42 gears. It shreds the MT Drag Radials 275/60/15. I have frame connectors and SSM traction bars. |
