why cant we leave well enough alone?
Yep, I already have a cam/lifter kit for my 318 that I planned on using in the build. I've used the cam before in a 318 and it worked great........however, now that I've ported the heads and had the block decked for more compression, I've picked out another cam, that of course, costs more than what I purchased this cam for,lol.
Like everyone else has said, it's a disease, for which the only cure is..... death.
I thought I beat it once. Sold my 71 Swinger. Moved to Colorado to go to Bible College. Was just driving an 87 Olds gas mileage getter for the next few years. However, I found myself creeping over to the magazine section of the grocery store or Wally World only to pick up the latest edition of Mopar Action or Mopar Muscle. It was just glances at first, then to reading full articles, then to buying the magazines. Eventually, I ended up buying an 86 Ramcharger 4x4. Then came the axles swaps, rear disc brakes, the 440 build. But soon, that wasn't enough. I wanted to go fast. Fast with a 2wd. I then bought my first FERD, an 04 Mustang GT. I didn't know a lick about Ferds so it helped to curb my appetite for spending on performance stuff. I did run the nuts off of it at the drag strip though for the first Summer I had it.
I then met the woman whom I ended up marrying. Sold the 440 and ended up trading the mustang in on a Hemi Jeep Commander. That curbed the disease again, only momentarily. :-({|=
In 2011 we bought the 66 and I ended up selling the Ramcharger. Now $$$$ into it, even my wife yells at me when I think I might want to sell it. lol :burnout:
I'm now pretty confident it's contagious and hopefully my wife never finds the cure :oops:
