I got my crane cam in the MAIL today. I can't wait to put that badboy in my truck! I've got to order my springs and pushrods next week along with some Lapole headers. I should have the headers on by the beginning of April and the cam a few weeks later. It should be interesting to see the results of my header/cam combo. Nobody has either one of them, that I know of.

Just "guestimating", how much hp/tq do ya'll think I might gain at the wheels?

 

what are the specs on the cam? what kind of headers are they, long tube, shorty, mids?

Matt

 

It's a Crane Cam 208/216--.530/.530 lift--113LSA.
The LaPole headers are mid-length headers. Here is a pic of them. http://www.pvmufflers.com/id31.htm

I talked to John Finnel on the phone about the headers and he was a real d*ck. He just didn't like the fact that I had true duals w/ flowmasters instead of his expensive a$$ glasspacked mufflers. They look like nice headers. 1 3/4" primaries instead of 1 5/8" like shorties. I figure I'd be the lab rat!

 

25-45 hp at the wheels. maybe more but

 

35-40 additional sounds about right.

 

Please let me know how that cam works. That is the one at the top of my wish list.
I have a friend with the LaPole headers. They are VERY similar to the Hamms I have. And yes, John is very opinionated about his products. I had the same conversation with him about my true duals. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Sounds like a good setup to me!

 

I'm gonna be getting Thunder Racing pushrods and some 02' Z06 springs. I wish I could get an ASP crank pulley to go with the setup, but everyone is out.
I e-mailed www.pdqperformance.com about the predator programmer. They said I could get a custom programmer for my cam for $569+shipping. I would get LS1 Edit but, I don't have a laptop.
