Are you going to stay with the glide, or go with something else?

We are going with a 4 speed, even though I have the original 'glide. I figured that if my Yenko and Ben's SS were both 4 speeds, Danny should get one too - no a/t's, especially not a wimpy 'glide. So, after I realized last year that I had bought the wrong flywheel (11.0" ![]() ![]() Once we (I) decided to go with a 4 speed, I figured I should really think about either the L79 or LT1 cams for it! Is there any way to keep a project under control?? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] Once I see this on his face, it won't matter any more!

Cam it up M. Just make sure you jack the back up and do the necessary changes to make that cam work!

Control of project is only relevent to cost/budget/insanity level.
In this case, maybe safety concerns for the youthful driver. We used a pretty much stock bottom end on my RG 68 Camaro. Used early double hump heads, 65ish I believe with, if I remember 54 cc 1.94 heads.(been a while) I used the repo L79 cam with a Holley contender intake which is built off the LT/1 blue print. I only went with a 600cfm Holley. I like the setup very well. It's user friendly, and has exactly what I wanted from it. Rear end is a 3.08 with tall tires so it's not fast out of the hole, but probably would run 140. It doesn't give up before I do. |
