Please no criticism of stock magnum heads keep it to talk about the cam I asked about thanks

I've had this cam for a while now. Just getting around to using it. It was called the "r/t+10." They also had a "regular" r/t cam available at same time. I'm thinking late 90s era. Was a broken box special from a buddy that worked at the local dealer at the time, UPS brought it in all taped up...

Is that a "no"?

I'm thinking it'll be slightly under square, I'm thinking of doing one up for a 3/4 ton 80s truck. Tow pig.

Red x time. He didn't say anything about a 360. Id find somebody to pull your original and have it gone thru... Unless it has a windowed block or something

Is there one still floating around? I could use one.

I've thought about it myself. I've got a couple of magnum blocks sitting here...

partly why I still have a lowly sporster

Don't know. Hard to keep track. But somehow I tied him to that car when I saw the thread. I did recently read the story about his older /6 valiant that went overseas. And I know that it wasn't all that recently that he had sold that one, it had been a little while ago

Steve has owned and/or been involved in so many cars over the years I thought the "green brick" was one of them

Well then who's valiant was that? The one I'm thinking of was a 69-70ish and a 2 door

I've honestly never had anything with a radical cam so I can't compare. I've always dealt with stock ot at "worst" an RV level cam in a /6 "just going by what I know/have experienced"for myself

I have a set of 302 heads here on the shelf fresh from the machine shop (ok 3 years ago but still not mounted on an engine) and yes I plan to pull them apart this summer and clean them up, mostly just casting flaws and yes I'm gonna RUN THEM... On a 318, even. Tough. Not going speed master, not...

People make so much about adjusting them as the old Chilton manuals said to do it(I believe this was the factory specified way too) like their afraid of them. Just fire it up, crank the idle as low as it'll go and still run, and go at it. I've done many of them like that over the years. I...

I thought the green brick valiant was his when they did the buildup of it in the magazine. I do remember the older one when had with the /6 that went overseas too, though.
