Cam Install

So did my TSP 231/236 cam install and it's an awesome cam to say the least! And I can't get enough of that chop

Ordered the TSP cam kit with
- PRC .650" Spring Kit
- TSP 231/236 Cam 112 LSA
- 3 Bolt Cam Gear w/ARP bolts

Also ordered a C5R Timing Chain and a Melling HV Oil Pump. All together I spent about $1500 and did my own work so I didn't have to pay a shop.

Here are pics during the install:

Then after I finished and started, I found out I had misfires on cylinders #1 and #6 Here's a link to the misfire:

So I had to go back into tearing apart the engine and found this...

...So I had to wait another week to receive my new valves and put everything back together and today I finally finished my cam install! Turned the car on aaaannnnddd
