Also, what kind of power do you think I should be close to with that and my current mods?

Doc is great. NO problems with him so far.

I agree with Steelshark. the cam is great for a dd.

I'd be SURE it is a 3 bolt cam... we're seeing a few one bolt cam setups go very bad.

whachu talking about Willis?

Your know your cam is single bolt...right?

I've seen the threads...but in each one there still seems to be not conclusive evidence that it was the single bolt that caused the issue...

With that being said....if your changing the cam...best bet is to go to a three bolt and make sure they use loc-tite.

So which meet are we talking about going too? I know everyone was talking about Merrill, but i was hoping for Kmart, because it's the meet we regularly attend thats actually close to my place, and that i can bring the wife too with no issues. Plus, if we're all gonna do dinner, we could hit somewhere in OP easily. Maybe even just Meet at a restaurant and have a C5 only meet??

You guys set it up and we'll figure out if we can make it. Bonnie has a contest here so I'm not sure what their sched is.

But I know they want to go if they can.

gatorlover · 08-02-2011, 05:17 PM

Good to know! Does he tune the tranny also?

Sweet.

Though our times are not yet concrete.

I'm trying to stay upbeat.

And to stay out of the heat.

But I'd love to have a seat.

At the J-Ville C5 meet.
