Hey 318WillRun,
I went through this thread last year. I haven't finished porting my heads yet and wanted re-watch the videos as a refresher. I watched the video about the vacuum of the Summit Cam and I noticed your gauge read just low of a "normal" motor. Have you had any issues related to the low vacuum? I'm planning on buying this cam for my 318 so I'm guessing I may need a vacuum canister, any thoughts?
Thanks again for this thread, its been an awesome resource.
no issues with vacuum. I have manual brakes also. Actually, it holds roughly 16-17 vacuum, which isn't bad at all with the cam. This cam in the 318 really wants a little better gears, and a small upgrade in converter. I also think headers would move the shift point to 5500 rpms and add a couple mph to the E.T.
But as it stands, I'm happy.....
