derek19 · 07-29-2012, 07:50 PM

i know a shop here in the memphis area will probably do it. i'll contact them to find out.

Yellow_Glide · 07-29-2012, 07:56 PM

Lol- Memphis is a little closer. Only 900 miles from me!

Thanks for checking - we can start a install list.

jmontalvo · 07-30-2012, 09:14 AM

There may be a shop in deep south Texas that would be willing to do it.

MACE_ENG · 07-30-2012, 10:06 AM

Don't forget tim@T & T for you DMV guys. He is also a vendor here on the forum. :thumbsup

Any butter for the popcorn?

philip0825 · 07-30-2012, 12:33 PM

So cams would work just fine with FI turbo or SC? And which one of the 2 would work better with.

MACE_ENG · 07-30-2012, 01:06 PM

Cams will work with all turbo and sc. Anyone doing cams, I would also definitely recommend porting. Cams and porting is like peanut butter and jelly. It will work with just one but will make a better tasting sandwich with both. With cams/porting your hp can easily double. Look at the SS guys. Ported IM, head, and cams, these guys are getting FI numbers darn near in 100+! Not going to say our 3.6motor will pull that high of a number, but you guys wil definitely almost double on your hp/tq when porting is involved with cams. This is just cam 101. Cam and porting go hand in hand ALWAYS! High flow application such as cams and turbo is where porting will benefit the most.

The names of the shops that may install the cams in deep south Texas are Excessive Motorsports, Spikes Performance & Tuning, and Tellez Motorsports. They're located in the Edinburg-McAllen area. See if you can get it done and then come to one of our club meetings so we can hear it!

Strange... I don't recall the 5.0 having a 3.6

Yellow_Glide · 07-30-2012, 03:50 PM

Yuck... Peanut butter, jelly and popcorn.

Oh no! Would've never thought it'd be that difficult to get someone to do it. FYI drove to and from FLA a couple months back. Only about 12-13 hrs! Got a bad feeling you're gonna be sitting on those cams for a little while

KeepIt, see you're in the "Circle Stone" area.

Lol!!! Hmm. Let's see - what do you do if you can't find something local? Let me think.... Anyone care to guess?

11 Camaro IBM · 08-01-2012, 04:36 AM

We need to find a shop in Texas anywhere in Texas I'm gonna go to my dealer tmrw ans see. How much it would cost to install "replacement" OEM new cams because I want the updates ones lol. Im pretty close with mostly everyone at the dealership so if it works I'll let everyone know.

tmac1granger33 · 08-01-2012, 05:26 AM

omg

cant wait to see how this turns out, if and when it happens lol!

I posted some possible shops in my previous comment.

GoPaul · 08-01-2012, 10:01 AM

Ordering these too, will worry about the install when I take delivery - hopefully we'd have identified a few in the Texas area by then. Bumberas & ARD will be a couple of those that I will contact myself also.

SnoopyAce7 · 08-01-2012, 11:44 AM

Can somebody post up the price for the cams? Why are we PM-ing the price around as if it is top secret?

That's because it IS a secret.

Last posted was around 1500.00 IIRC.

Yellow_Glide · 08-01-2012, 12:36 PM

A little clarification - the cam price set by Mace is $1500 and he should get every penny as the is a Ton of money Steve has nvested to develop these and he's gambling on the outcome . Not trying to be rude or an ass just explaining my position. I'm $3500 into this and the car hasn't made it to the shop yet... Yeah, I know it's only money.

Now, I didn't pay the $1500 because I agreed to before and After dyno runs on just the cam install which means since we're adding heads and few other items my install casts are going to double. So the offset on the cam costs will help with the install costs and I intend to honor that arrangement with Steve.
