426 stroker dropped in scamp

Remember this car stuff is just all for fun and enjoyment. 90% of the people out here aren't trying to get these going so they can get to work and feed their family. That's already been done and this is for fun and entertainment so let's keep a light-hearted about it.. poking at each other a little bit as part of the fun..

FYI Hughes does not grind cams...
They send their specs to somebody who does them for them...
Me personally I take my cam to a cam grinder who grinds it to my exact one-off spec... (After a discussion with them of course).. to the tune of $79..... No high dollar off the shelf stuff for me...

FYI, it don't matter who grinds there cams, if the cam will make power, it's all i care about.
i've know this for years, never bothered me then and still don't bother me now.
don't need exact one off cam either for most builds. that is made up hype. just like a off the shelf cam can't make power, all nonsense.

"MADE UP HYPE" Is exactly what Hughes sales...
I'm not saying I don't have some of there products on my duster and DD truck.. BUT, if you read about any of there products there's always a big hype paragraph about how great they think there product is..
Me if I was that interested in one of there cam grinds I would just take the specs to my cam grinder and have it done for $79.. I'm lucky enough to live only 10 miles away from him...

Still lives the bike huh? Can’t blame him.
Alzheimer’s is a horrible thing. My pops is just starting to catch the bug. God bless ya man. This is no easy task. Extremely taxing. Extremely!

Yeah, it's really a cruel disease. Lost my dad to it 3 years ago. Was really hard seeing his mental decline over a number of years and was a shell of himself at the end. That first time he didn't recognize me was probably the most painful thing I've ever experienced. I miss the hell outta him every day

Be well and appreciate folks while you can people.

And so hence that is the problem with the Internet and text. Hard to catch sarcasm, seriousness or anger sometimes not everyone can be absolutely sure where you’re coming from.

Now how many ways can that be take?
How many ways can the words be accented with speech?
To some your funny, to others your a moronic asshole. It’s hard to know when just reading the dry text.

I only go there to beef up my ignore list for the most part. What a bunch of losers...
Click to expand...
Well I did the ignore stuff for abit. It was my behavior at times to be a wiseass back to other's. I apologize to all I offended. My fault and I really am here to help true Mopar or no car people out all I can while I'm still alive. It's all I got to offer and I'm here to answer and help all I can. Again; my deepest apologies to all. Have a great day and take care.
 
Save the apology, it's really not needed. maybe for some but not me.
I'm a crusty old 58. It's hard to ruffle my feathers. lol

Hah no worries YR, I thought sure I was going to have to repost a pix of my tach on dash at a real track! Alternatively I could just post the pix of some super cool aerodynamic home made wheel covers on a drag racing snowmobile I saw at track last week. But that would just be teasing JPar. I can’t make power at 8k but that snowmobile darn sure was! To your point there is a lot of racers and pretty savvy tech guys on here. Many just very quietly lurk in the shadows and head to tracks on weekends to break their junk. I would not want to line up with several of them you named. Some pretty quick folks on here for sure. Not counting of course the 100 guys that all have 10 second cars that show up every weekend to get their 13 second time slips!!!!!!!!

Hay I resemble that remark I showed up damn well knowing I was going to be deep in the 11s as I picked up my 12.50 time slip
