if you remeber my vert or ever heard or saw it run that was cobra block, gt 40 heads with 1.7 rockers and a e cam ran great would have been way faster in lighter car hope that helps it was a good strong motor

I have an E cam in my Jeep and i like how it runs. i have an E Cam laying on the floor of my room for my 95 but i want to do springs with it so i don't have valve float. i haven't installed it because i don't want to lose the 450 dollars worth of AC fluid and i don't look forward to changing the springs lol
