          Hey that's my cam! Id remember that number anywhere. I was wondering wher that got to. I had a head and a SVO attached to it. Thanks for finding them for me. I can get it back from ya at the next reunion.

                If only I could afford a bored out cam... maybe one day I will get lucky.

                      You guys realize our cams are bored with a plug in one end and the cam bolt in the other.
                      So.. I think we all have a bored out cam.

                        I heard Bud bored his cam 0.030 over and that is how he did so well at the autox
                        He got the idea from the Corvette guy

                          I thought Gator was the one that bored everything
