Default Re: L78 motor cam opinion's

Ty, yes it is a great cam.. I really like it. I have had the motor done now for about 6 years and put roughly 6 thousand miles on her cruisin around town and it's been great!! One thing I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND to you is now that the motor is just about at/past it's break in point is to start running AMSOIL 20W50 full synthetic severe duty racing oil. I use it and I think it is awesome. I have noticed that my solid lifter valve train is less noisy using this oil. You can also leave it in the engine for a couple seasons if your not driving the car much.. It will not collect moisture either. I know there have been many discussions here on the board regarding motor oils and I'm sure some guys will disagree with me, but I think this stuff is "THE BOMB". It also offers excellent engine wear protection!! Just some "food for thought". Good luck with the new engine!!
