Cool thanx for the info...I had already read some write ups on forums or whatnot but wanted to get some opinions from people running them. Hopefully Ill get mine running by this weekend.
I love the sound of a rough idle...I was thinking of changing my cam...what negative effects can it have on my motor though?? How do I go about choosing one?
@Boizart1 if you're running with fuel injection it will just make your mpg go down but if you have carbs, you have to rejet (and still make your mpg go way down). You will have a certain "power bandwidth" in certain rpms when the car will pull harder. Usually if you are just using your car street, a stage 1 or 2 will be fine. They are both low to mid range "power bandwidth." Stage 3 and greater are usually only for racing purposes. That's a realllllll basic knowledge of cams. Do some research!!!
@Fadedexecutor well if you do all your motor stuff first you wont have to pull it, or tear down the motor with new paint? That always scares me, I scrated my hood cuz i had to pull the motor.
@sweetlikeADAM
you do know that the cam in that car is huge thats why it sound raspy and that car will smoke your little 50hp honda any day

I don't think it sounds awesome. Cars that sound like that sound like shit. I'd rather a smooth tone come from an idle.
