Complete Listing here. These cams work great with Iron heads, Edelbrock heads both stock and ported as well as stage 2 heads.

Comp Cams Roller Cams added for Big Block Mopar

July 15th, 2010

Comp Cams Roller CamsEven though we have had our own brand of custom camshafts for years,  we just added the full line of Comp Cams roller cams for big block Mopar applications to our site with special pricing.  We have had great success with our cams over time, including fast street cars, as well as record holding cars, but we also realize there are those who don’t have any interest in a custom cam, or just want to keep it simple. Well, for you guys we have added the Comp shelf Rollers. We will soon be adding the rest of the Comp line to the site for those of you interested in them. Comp Cams Roller Camshafts.

We have special pricing on these cams, as well as discounts on Comp Cams lifters when purchased at the same time.

Bruce Wilson’s Jaguick ( Buick Powered Jaguar!)

July 12th, 2010

We always like to see something a little different. Bruce Wilson’s Buick 455 Powered Jaguar is definitely different and exceptionally well done. The Jag was rescued out of Smitty’s Junkyard in Pasadena, MD. The body and interior look pretty much as you see here, surprising with the 200,000+ miles.  Someone had gutted the driveline and left the shell.  The car still has the original leather seats, real wood dash and power windows. Now that’s different for a 9 second racecar!  When Bruce picked it up, they put it on the trailer with a forklift and gave him a weary “good luck”.

The body was shipped of to Clark’s Racing Chassis, to get the cage and Ladder bar rear suspension  put in it.  The front suspension is stock Jag, with custom drag shocks fitted by Bruce.  Peters Sheetmetal fabrication handled the hood mods, and Dave Wilson at Southern Automatics handled the transmission.

Tom and Bubb at Burtonsville Performance Machine were put in charge of machining and assembly. The Engine is a basic 464 CID combination, with a stock crank, 4.350 Bore CP flat top pistons, and TA Performance Stage 1 heads that have been fully ported. The Cam is a custom flat tappet from Scott Brown @ Competition Components.  A Dominator is perched atop a KB Wildcat intake (Now the SPX)  and sealed to the custom hood.

The Jag really hauls the mail, running a best of 9.71@ 137 best with a 1.32 sixty foot time.  Not bad for a 3300lb car running a 3.50 gear. No, we aren’t kidding!  Usually though, Bruce takes some timing out and short shifts to run 10.00 Index races. This past weekend, Bruce was runner up in the naturally aspirated shootout series in Maple Grove, where he is currently the Points Leader.  Congrats Bruce!

Update on E85 powered 455 Buick with Ported Edelbrock heads

May 24th, 2010

We managed to get Brian’s 72 Buick GS to Norwalk for the Annual Buick Raceday and get some passes on it. On the dyno, it made 703 HP, full results here. We had a great first outing running three passes in the 10.60′s right out of the box. The engine has been dyno’d, but we hadn’t made any passes in the car, so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. We had some charging issues which plays hell with the MSD ignition boxes, and a big hesitation on launch, so overall we were very pleased with our first outing. I’m sure with some attention to detail, and getting issues straightened out, the car will run even better.

Overall, the Norwalk Buick Raceday is a great event, and it was nice to be able to put faces with all of the names of the Buick guys I have spoken to over the years. Roberta, Bill and crew do a great job putting this event on. If you have an opportunity, you should check it out. More info here: Buick Raceday: Facebook Page

Gary Giessen’s 65 Skylark Convertible

May 20th, 2010
When you own your car as long as Gary has had this ’65, you have a long time to get it to perform the way you want it too. 23 years of hard work and dedication have made this car into a car that looks great and runs hard.  On motor, the car has gone a best of  10.29 @ 131, and a 9.53 @ 143 with a 200HP Nitrous hit.
The Engine consists of a .038 over 455 Buick, running a BME Nitrous piston with Total Seal file fit rings, with 12.5 to 1 Compression. Stock length aluminum rods swing on a stock 455 Crank that is cross-drilled. A TA Performance HAlo Girdle helps keep the bottom end where its supposed to be, with ARP Studs clamping both the main caps and the heads in place. Speaking of heads, they are TA Track Eliminators that use the big 2.260/1.750 valve package with matching TA 1.7 ratio Roller Rockers.  The cam is a custom flat tappet piece from Scott Brown at Competition Components. Specs are in the 260 at .050 range and .636 lift with the big 1.7 rockers. Atop the TA Intake is a single 1050 Dominator, with a Nitrous Express Gemini Twin single stage plate snuck between them. An MSD Billet distributor lights it all off, and a set of Lemon’s custom 2 1/8- 2 1/4 step headers direct the burnt mixture into the Dynomax bullet mufflers that try to keep things quiet. A Petersen external oil pump and a Meziere water pump, push their resective fluids through the engine.
The Trans and Converter are from Mike’s transmission, including the Ultimate TH400, as well as the 9inch converter. The rear end houses a spool and 3.70 gears, while 35 spline axles get the power to the tires. Gary has spent a lot of effort on the suspension on the car, and it has definitely paid off. The front end consists of  TRZ Control arms, Moroso trick front springs, and HAL shocks to keep the Bogart Superfly lights heading the right direction. The rear sports Wolf Racecraft lower control arms, and HR Parts and Stuff uppers, as well as their anti roll bar. These work hard together to keep the 29.5X10.5 slicks planted, and Wilwood disc brakes all 4 corners make sure the 3550lb  car stops on the big end. As I said before, all of this hard work has paid off, with 60′ times in the 1.48 range on motor, and a 1.38 (lifting) on the juice.
