    Going to do a couple of small changes

    I have picked up a ls1 stock cam, for free.. and I am getting some used drag radials from a friend.. I will be buying new ones before long, but the economy has sucked so has the hours at work until lately.. I will be putting them on then going to the track to see what the improvements there will be.. I cant wait since I wont be spinning second gear anymore..

    dont bother with an ls1 cam, if your going to do the work wait till you have $150 and get an ls6 cam and springs pullout.

    I already have a cam that I am getting from someone that is much better than the ls1 cam. Just cant tell you the specs yet. I will be getting that when the gto gets the procharger setup on it. The ls1 cam is free, so why not. It will be temporary and just to get a better time at the track..
