I plan on keeping it longer than that. I intend to build a forged motor when the budget allows me to do it right.

Good news cam went in today. We will be adding cooling mist maybe tomorrow. I think I will be making some changes.

This may sound anal to some of you, but I like the quiet interior of the camaro. I have done a lot of work on interiors over the years and I have never seen an interior go back together as tight as it came from the factory. Regardless of who was doing the work.

I will not be running the wires through my interior to the gauge pod. I think I will choose a different tank and mount it under the hood. I am aware the pump must sit lower than the tank. I would rather have everything under the hood.

If anyone here has run this kit or others like it, can you give me some advice? If you have pictures of your install, that would be really helpful.

What cam did you end up going with? Great decision to upgrade over the LS9 unit. It would have been a shame to strangle this thing with that tiny cam.

I chose the cam recommended by Tim. I should have the specs on it later. I posted the incorrect info earlier. Tim will release later if he wants.
