The only reason I could see not using a billet one is it could be harder than the oil pump drive and thus kill the oil pump drive very fast, IE running a roller cam on a stock flat tappet cam distributor gear, ala SBC, so if that was the case, we'd have to have a new oil pump gear made too.
Damn, too true, :(
There are a few of us that would buy one. I would agree not many!
:clap:
I think these int. shafts are a ways off. Think of how hard it is to find 3.50FD sets for a hybrid trans right now. None of us want to pay for that to be made yet and there is probably a much greater demand there. I think we are about 2 years off from the 525 ring gears being reasonable for guys to pay for, but by that time how many will be left?
Lengel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm thinking external belt driven oil pump and distributor like the big kids :D
If anybody can do it......Warren's the one :clap:
A couple people asked me how well my engine idled with the new cam, so I shot a short video. This is at about 850 rpm.............http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=terYMkUVjgg
You can hear the noise of the solid lash adjusters when the camera is close to the valve cover. the lash is set at .014int. and .016ex.
Awesome Warren! I love the distinct sound the 8V T-M motors make :amen:
awesome!!! sounds sort of like my 2.5 G head with open DP...makes me want to post the video of my buddy runnin it..lol. altho your sounds WAY more throatier on the throttle :evil:
Very nice! Idles a lot more evenly than I would have expected. :clap:
:thumb::thumb:
I'm surprised it runs at all with that hacked up wiring job. ;) ;) (I felt that needed two winks)
That sounds pretty dang smooth Warren. :nod: Do find the throttle response is better with the ITBs?
Awesome, :hail:
Do you have any pics of your trans pan, I want to make a new one this winter, I've finally got an aluminium welder, :nod:
Awesome....that is all....
Now I know the sequence needed to start your car.....muuhaaahaaa!
Cammed 8v's do sound badass.
