Really all I want to do is go further on a tank, getting gas every 50-60 miles cuts into my driving time. Plus I can't really go any bigger on the tank there just in not room in the in the trunk because of the slump and battery and the cell. I might be able to swing a custom 15 gallon but its not really worth the cost.
After digging through the 6 inch stack of documents on the car I have the build sheet.
The cam is a B&M super 288 cam. I have the B&M manual so I will dig up the specs.
This is the cam spec's as far as I know it. I think someone made a copy of this cam at some point becase these numbers look similiar to others that I have seen.
Specifications ........Intake ......Exhaust
Duration at .050....x.234 ........x244
Lobe Lift ............... .3254 ...... .3400
Lobe Seperation ............................ 114° I think?
Seat Duration @ .004 .......288 .. .292
Gross Valve Lift .............. .488 ...........510
Degree Intake Lobe To ................102° ATDC ?
Cam is labeled as having reasonable idle plenty of vacuum and good mid to top range power.
Also got comformation that my is a shell valley stuck to the back of another paper is the original sales reciept, who ever did the body mods is crazy good then because I have never seen a car this clean if it was modified after the mold.
