You should see the cost of the approved wood chips you have to burn in the gasifier to pass fuel check...

And it gives new meaning to the old phrase "put it to the wood!".
I like the paint.

To bad that's the way they came! Pontiac was one of the only manufacturers that put enough cam and valve spring in their performance engines. First computer designed cam to go in a production car, 1968 ram air 2 Firebird. That was the 041T cam used later in the Ram 4 cars.

Having a picture of Billy without a hat, is like a picture of a Yetti! Very rare. |

Is the hacksaw used to adjust the length of the velocity stack(garbage can)?
Also, prudence demands a second fire extinguisher, possibly a third?! |

Pontiac did this for class racing. If a cam had an actual 320* of duration, I'm not sure it would run! I also had a real deal RAIV / 4-speed / 4.33 rear '69 GTO. Can't imagine what that must be like in a '69 Firebird!

Jeff, for what it's worth. My Lemans that I raced for almost all my time in class racing started racing life as a bracket car. My first engine was a TRW piston, stock shortblock with d port 4 barrel heads and a Torker intake. The valvetrain consisted of a Crane Blurprint 041t cam and stock rockers.
The duration on that cam at .002 tappet lift was 308 in 320 exh. At .050 231 int 240 exh. 114 LC. That cam idled at 900 rpm with 14 inches of vacuum. I ran 12.18 109 in a 3700 pound car with 4.10 gears and 28 slicks. That cam was right from Crane. The lobes were in the right place, and it had slow ramps. This is the way those cams were, like it or not. Quote:
