You should of borrowed my AF gauge when i offered it to you OH well I'm glad your car is moving forward and you're enjoying it!..You've put more miles on your Camaro this week then i have on mine in 2 years Keep us updated and next time TAKE REV WITH YOU, HE'D LIKE THAT !!

BTW Does your car have a 12 bolt or?? I have OEM GM 3.73 (8.5 rear) and want 3.31 or 3.42..maybe a trade??

But I really didn't need your AF gauge when you had it........

FWIW - I think I'm approaching 10K miles now in 24 years.

Rev and Tucker would have heat issues riding in that car right now. Talk about spoiled.....they go outside for 10 minutes then head back into the AC house and Rev usually plants himself in front of a vent.

My car has the OEM 12 bolt, I believe it's 8.875"? I'm leaning to 3:55, but still need to recheck the 5th and 6th gear ratios for my optimum rpm's.

So you're saying you're tougher then your dogs

If at first you don't succeed..............run the valves again!



Having a stainless flex-fan makes turning the crank somewhat exciting......no blood!



Hydraulic cam, Intake closing, exhaust opening, zero lash and half turn. Finally that annoying little tick-tick is history. I tried to cheat doing it right, by using a remote start switch vs. a breaker bar on the crank.........when in reality the right way doesn't take that much longer.

That's great when you get to the point on a build when you are done with all the hard work, and your waxing the car and doing some fine tuning. Glad to hear you got rid of the valve ticking

Before I put the hydraulic clutch in my car, I had upgraded all of the pivot points on my mechanical clutch. I upgraded the stock shaft and bushing set up with spherical rod end bearings per an article from the Pozzi Gen 1 website. The spherical bearings reduce the friction and take out some of the play in the joints. The set up worked good for the mechanical clutch set up.

You are welcome to have the parts I made if you can use them. Here is a pic of the parts
