After working out a few bugs geting the cam swap to do what it was supposed to (make more power...) I took it to the track Saturday after the Houston Thirdgen F-body Gathering. I ran at the 1/8th mile because it is closest to my place (and the park where we had the meet).
60ft 2.1685
330ft 6.4104
1/8ET 10.0421
1/8SD 67.23 MPH
Not a bad run at all considering I couldn't get a good launch with the crappy tires and open rear. This cam knocked 6 TENTHS off of my ET, with little to no tuning. Previous best was a 10.65 at 64mph. I'd bet with some minor tuning and lower air pressure in the tires (ran at 35 psi...), I could break 9's no problem. The track calculator told me I ran a calculated 15.665, that's much faster than before. Baja beast cam is a good mod, AFTER you adjust the timng properly... I wonder if the timeslips submission area accepts 1/8th mile slips, that would put me in the top 5 NA 3.4L.
