It should be noted that while the 3/4 cam has a nice lopey idle in a regular small block motor,when installed into a corvette motor,it will seem much more mild.

thats because that vette motor is so radical that it even tames the cam :wink:

Have you ever noticed how many guys have Corvette engines in their hot rods? My question, so, obviously there must be a lot of corvettes with no engines?

Dave,
That is a good one! Not trying to 'jack the thread, just reminded me of a 'vette story that happened to me a couple weeks ago.

BTW, this is NOT a plug for my generator.....but if you want to ask about it......................

I swear this is the truth........I have a heavy duty 30hp, 62.5amp generator for sale on CL Charlotte....Bought new, near $3k...asking $1700 on CL...I have lsted will trade as well....Guy calls me, says I have seen your stuff on here before, and asks if I am into old cars.....Of course I said yes, but only Chevy....He proceeds to tell me that he has a heck of a sweet deal for my generator.....He has a set of, now they need to be rebuilt, double hump heads off of a CORVETTE motor he would be willing to trade for the generator..............I asked how much cash is in the deal......He tells me!!!!!!! Oh, I will just trade them even, I know they are expensive and you "draggers" like them.......I then hung up.

If you have an extra corvette engine laying around, I have an original 66 vette to put it in. It's an original ALL STEEL car. Not one of those figerglass corvette repilcas. :D

Just send cash, unmarked bills, to my po box. :D
