bad cam?
By e smith - 03/04/2002 5:45:16 PM; IP 64.12.104.184
i own an s code 69 mach 1. the 390 has been all freshened up, 30 over, 209-165 valves, performer rpm intake, flattops. when it came to the cam i wanted advice and a buddy said he would search it and get one for me. this is a gt motor and i wanted even more umph out of it, he ordered me a crane cam,280 degrees int and ex. and 514 lift int and ex., the problem is i have a c6 behind it with a 3.00-1 open rearend with 275/60-15. and besides idling real bad, its got no low end power, its a slug up to 40mph then it comes alive
really good. i think it would be good if i had a 4 speed, but with my auto, it sucks. any advice, is it the cam?
the motor was really wicked before i rebuilt it, anf 3000
bucks later it seem s like i took a big step backwards
This thread, so far...
