Good on ya for admitting to yourself that you weren't completely happy with the engine configuration. I bet you'll be a lot happier with a more toned down mill.
Thank you for the compliment. As far as the engine goes it was great. A damn powerhouse that was just an amazing performer. I was driving it everyday and if you were so inclined it would be easy to do that, but….it was a handful. It wasn’t a car that you could just punch from a stop, hell at a 60 mph roll it would just fry them if you dropped down and nailed it. If you want a car you can drive on pump gas around town AND stomp the hell out of your class at the track with a set of slicks this is the cam for you. I am keeping the specs. Paul gave me exactly what I asked for.
