Who says cammed cars aren't reliable???

[AZ3.8Camaro]

13.8s on street tires at the strip.
Daily driven 30 minutes to the university, and 30 minutes home, to work and back etc.

Then on the weekends, I go cruising. Picture

Well, not really cruising, more like racing up mountains, and other curvy roads, with evos and wrxs, etc.

On stock suspension, I keep up pretty well.
Music blasting, AC on.

No leaks, no SES light.

I am happy with my car right now! :D

Very cool! :cool: Btw, how's your gas mileage?

some cars are even DOUBLE cammed (ya know, DOHC) and are very reliable - even get good gas mileage.

Around 16-20 in the city (I drive it hard, use the a/c etc.)

Upwards or passed 25mpg on the freeway.

Untuned still. A tune will definately help the mileage. Thats with the 3.73s also.

btw - the best I ever got in the city stock was 20 mpg. Driving it the same way. With 3.23's.

Yes it is. We had an evo go off on the run I just got back from. Didn't hurt him, but damaged the front end of the car.
I stay mid-back of the pack so I know ahead of time where to slow down. The poeple that lead know the roads really well.

Mine isn't. Well I guess my car is reliable, it just runs like ****. If that even makes sense.

Wait wait, I don't understand the title of this thead.

Is there some ancient proverb saying "cammed" cars aren't reliable?

[AZ3.8Camaro]

No, there is mounds of evidence...

Whos tuning it?

[AZ3.8Camaro]

Steve (ssms5411) said he would help me out.
I am getting HPTuners as a "Christmas Gift", so I will mess around with tuning it myself.
Its not THAT hard.
Between Jeff and I, someone in Tucson will learn how to do it! [img]smile.gif[/img]
