Hi Dave Colbert......I built a '69 Camaro around 1979. I intended to just bracket race it but was talked into making it a SS/JA by the men at Crow's Head Shop....I soon was working there and did for 10 years. We machined lots of stuff for T/K's and I spoke to Ralph all the time. You might have been there.

The Camaro I built got a cam recommended by Ralph and it was one he said you used with great success. I had a cam reground to those specs. It was a G-K 308......I broke a pile of parts with that cam! Maybe it was because it was a regrind. I tried all kinds of things to stop the breakage but had to get that cam outta there.....I had much better luck with a Cam Dynamics or a Lunati......I never could run with the lead guys but gave it a try.......Best et was 11.18 at 118 around 1981 or 1982. The good cars were dipping into the 10.90's by then...
