Ugly Stick - new cam

Well folks, it's about time to put some serious breathing into this beast. I got my new cam and heads from WOT-Tech, and now it's going to get fun.

Here's the full list from WOT-Tech that I'm putting in while I'm at it:
Competition Cams, WOT-Tech custom turbo grind
Race/Boost heads
ARP head studs
Durabond Teflon cam bearings
Cometic MLS head gaskets
'Moly pushrods

And modeling the new cam before the fun begins, my youngest daughter who will be helping me do the install:

I don't know about all THAT lol....but yeah, bottom end is stock for now. At most I'll probably run all ARP studs throughout, race rods and bearings, then forged pistons. For now I'm sticking with a stock crank.

that is so nice... I really recommend you do the arp rods and main while you're at it... Keep up the good work
and as a personal information... does the 3500 upper plenum make a great difference... or has it to be used with the lower 3500 plenum...

for the 3400/3500 i'm a noob lol

The stock 3500 upper and lower can be utilized independently, but are only effective if they're match-ported. I've been running the 3500 uppper with the 3400 lower. The 3500 stock manifolds are reported to out-flow fully ported 3400 models. Once the 3500's are ported/polished, they have incredible flow properties.

not likely this time. I'm not changing altitudes that drastically this time, so I shouldn't have the lean condition we had before. It will be fully tuned and tested repeatedly before hitting the track.
