Ugly Stick - new cam

[BlackJack]

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:

awesome shit! dude, you are my idol, you running a stock bottom end?
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.

[kwhauck]

good shit dude, can't wait to see it at kansas.....

[BlackJack]

It will be good to be there.

[cherrington17]

i won't be there... but the list looks...promising.

lets hope something idiotically bad doesn't go wrong

like what, tear the chassis in half? LOL

[guiguilandry]

that is so nice... I really recommend you do the arp rods and main while you're at it... Keep up the good work :eek: :eek:
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

[BlackJack]

Thanks!

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.

no, like getting everything set and ready, and another cylinder gets blackjack'd. (read fubar'd)

[BlackJack]

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.

[01silveralero]

looks like u need new tires.

[BlackJack]

Or hail destroying your car. Blackjack I hope you have a garage or something to protect your car for storm season coming up against hail and or wind damage.

Now I know I'm not captain obvious here or anything....but to me...it looks like his car is in a garage right now.

[BlackJack]

Sweet. Can't wait to see/hear it in actionMe too!!
looks nice ya it is probably going to be loudProbably won't be any "louder" than it is currently, turbo cams for street/strip focus more on midrange to high end power, as opposed to N/A grinds that have a more noticeable "lope"
Sick! Wat r the specs on the cam?"secret grind" from WOT-Tech utilizing Ben's cam selection service. I got the spec sheet here but I'll find out if he wants to release them.

I dub thee 1st Lieutenant Obvious

I don't doubt that, all things considered tornadoes themselves move pretty slow. By the time your build is done I full expect you to race them in reverse

[BlackJack]

Post away, its a great grind:)

Right on!

dur at .006 - 265/273
dur at .050 - 216/224
Gross lift @ 1.6:1 - .507/.507
LSA- 113
ICL- 111

Should be a pretty hot setup!
