Re: "Judgement Day", GTO vs F-Body Shootout @ Englishtown Raceway Park....

^ Bauer's camshafts have always impressed me. He's a big believer in using the least amount of duration possible for street driven applications. He could have leaned toward more duration, but that might have sacrificed drivability. Both he, Curtis and Overton are the best cam designers out there. Only know of one 3rd Gen car (Traxion's) that employed an Overton camshaft, and to this day I'm very impressed. Tim (Traxion) is one hell of a tuner, and he didn't even delve that deep into it in this run. So much more was left on the table....

some of these custom cams alot of people are putting alot of faith in are using lobes that are more aggressive than full on race lobes. (will not stand up to street driving)

Trying to determine if the Phamspeed setup will clear everything in the third gen, and if so, it's just the matter of making the downpipe for him....;

Very true. A lot of guys switched to LSK lobes a few years back when they were suddenly the rage, but then immediately pulled them back out because they didn't shim their springs properly to make them last, and/or were simply a bear to tune for street driven applications....

.... why, have you GONE members been asking around? We don't roll that way, sorry.

TTA-343 had a very good idea, let's make this get together a little bit more interesting by leveling out the playing field. You guys want to bracket race? I mean, I see Melissa won today. Care to follow that up against real cars, namely 3rd gens....?

Re: "Judgement Day", GTO vs F-Body Shootout @ Englishtown Raceway Park....

i just pray i can get a cage/nitrous/12 bolt in a month. doubtful

if no cage i'll have to stay at 11.50's i would hate to have to detune the car for that or brake at the line/get out of it early

i want to do the new interior at the same time as the cage, since its easier that way. What i have in mind is gonna cost a fair penny and take time, depending if i can find the interior parts i need and what seats i go with

Bad news is I need to replace the valve, spring retainer and stud....

Good news is I'm replacing both heads with 2.02/1.60 heads....

This is why we should bracket race. Got a few PM's from member's who are concerned about their cars only running in the 12's and 13's. If we bracket race, it levels everything out, and it gives the 12-13-14 second cars a chance to bring home the win....

Bye run finals
Good runs by Melissa...And congrats on the win...

Also,Nice meeting you guys there...I guess that Tempest saved his best run for me...lol...He didn't look like he did so well on his run against Melissa.He went .005 Green and 11.29 on a 11.27 dial against me. ...lol Oh well..

Also,congrats to My Buddy Artie who won the Radial tire buick class...his car is dialed in and he is a terror on the tree...Nobody there was taking him down that day.He is also fifth in the real street point chase.

I know they are not light cars...My Gn was 3750 with me in it.I was suprised the GTA was almost 3600 with me in it...I would of thought with the LS1 it would be lighter.

Im just busting chops...All in good fun...Nice meeting you at the track,Im sure I will be seeing you guys down there in the upcoming weeks.

We'll go heads up, no problemo. I thought it would be a good idea to give the slower cars a chance to bring home the win for the entire event, but we could keep it in seperate classes if need be. Gotta be some rules though so things don't get out of hand, so how about this, heads-up racing but you can't go faster than that bracket that you select otherwise you automatically lose. Example, two racers select the 11.00 - 11.49 index, both can run 11.00 or anything slower (just not faster, of course, because it would defeat the purpose), but the one who crosses the finish line first wins. You guys game.....?

9.00 - 9.49 index
9.50 - 9.99 index
10.00 - 10.49 index
10.50 - 10.99 index
11.00 - 11.49 index
11.50 - 11.99 index
12.00 - 12.49 index
12.50 - 12.99 index
13.00 - 13.49 index
13.50 - 13.99 index


^ The idea here is to know your car well enough to select the proper index, and to keep the sand bagging between racers to a minimum. Everyone agree to this....?

It really shouldn't matter, anything can happen. How badly did you beat Paul's other Grand National, when his car is clearly faster than your GTA (for now). Anything can happen, so choose your index wisely guys....

I'll take them Dave, I've had some stuff to give you anyways as well. I have brand new springs, locks and retainers. How are the valves, any damage to them? Only one good thing came out of pulling the heads off, engine's a 406. Disregard the pic (took it immediately after the head was pulled), as the pistons now look brand new after they were cleaned up....

I didnt realize who you were...But now I have to guess that the blue/Green GTO at the track Sat was yours...lol..

Dont take too much offense to the Power adder thing,You gotta do what you gotta do to get those GTO's to actually go fast...lol.

From what I have seen...It looked like low 10's would in fact get it done....I see you will be picking the 9.5 to 9.99 class...Did you find room to actually ad another power adder on there?...

I will be going for my comp License in a few weeks(Car is @ wildrides getting the cage finished)...If you like,I will let you know when I will be there..Will probably be a wed.Or fri nite...I will be in a white T type..Full weight street car(PUMP GAS).If you would like to line up for shitz and giggles..I would be all for it.Should be fun.

Oh yeah...And that will be a single turbo V6... with Overdrive and A/C..lol

No, the cam is very mild. The putz that had the car before me had the valves set way to tight. You don't have to do that bro, honestly, the heads are more than enough, and the stock press in studs are fine. Gotta order valve seals too. Just want to get the car back on the road asap so I can get it to and from the track again. Are the heads by the shop, or by the house....?

there at the shop i gota run a roll threw all the ports real fast they rusted up slightly from being freshly ported and sitting for a few years but it will only take a few mins to do, hell some wd-40 on a rag would prolly take the rust out of the ports. hit up advance or autozone hell even pepboys they should stock the valve seals
