    Beefed up Cam

    Also with that dial indicator you can measure the duration on the hub. I checked my "mystery cam" four times, and averaged the results. When I pulled the engine apart six months later and actually determined make and grind of the cam I had nailed it dead on (with the catalog specs). Very...

    Con rod ?? for street stroker

    I called 440Source. They said thier budget rods are good for 500hp on one and 600 or so on the other....can't remember which was which, geez. I'm just not confident that my rods are exactly the same as 44Source, thus I have no real info to go on. I guess I'm putting this thing together once...
