[V8] Me & my $1,500 5spd impressions

Sat Jan 27 23:13:37 EST 2007

Andrew, et all....you know I take back my last
statement.....the cams ARE diffrent from the 3.6 to
the 4.2 Autos.
I posted the specs on them last month.
& since you mentioned haveing to R&R the VC gaskets
you should just advance the 3.6 cams like I've
mentioned before. See how that feels. I can tell you
when I did that to my 90 Pearl Auto I got more top
end, & the torque was still there..no drop off.
See how the advance feels with the standard 1st. 

& side note...& I'm sure Sean can chime in..but I
think he mentioned the S8 cams are comparable..but I"M
NOT SURE! Mail him to find out if he doesn't chime in.
