Let's talk G3 hemi cams
A little update for you guys. The engine is back together. Have about 500 miles on it. Running great. The only thing I changed was I went with the 6.1 aluminum intake. This was my first time inside of a Gen 3 and they are really easy to work on. I went with Manton pushrods thru MMX. Called with my measurements and they were at my door about four days later. I got my Cometic .070 head gaskets from Cometic in about a week. Did the foot to the floor trick to prime the oil pump three times and it fired up right up with no noise. I did have a startup tune from Johan aka Diablotoona. This is Cam Motions smallest shelf cam but it has a nice lope and you can tell the engine has been modified. Idles at 800 rpm in drive. No leaks. Still pinching myself.
Since that went so well I decided to do something about this 2.82 single traction diff. Found a Getrag 3.91 LSD entire cradle out of a 2010 manual Challenger. Swapped that in and changed the ratio with the Diablo and again no issues. Just taking it easy so far but that woke things up. Waiting on my gear lube to come in before I really beat on it. This new stuff is fun.
