Thanks. Does that affect engine performance or anything? Or is it just a weird sound when idle?




When done in conjunction with the other things that have to done when a performance cam is installed, it will make it haul arse.

Mild cam = slight lope at idle, power pushed to higher RPM range

And while I don't know shite about cams I can hear that rumble in my ears now with a Chevelle pictured and it brings me back to high school. shite. It makes me realize I'm vintage.




Same here. My eldest brother was somewhat of a hotrodder back in the mid 70's. He had a 74 camaro rs that he would race at LaPlace dragway on the weekends. My uncle had a chevy dealer in Gramercy so he had access to his best tech and installed a high performance cam in is car and they tuned it so as it wasn't supposed to be noticed before the race.

He made a little money that weekend.

Friggin govt ruined all this fun.
