When people ask me what kind of cam do I have in the car, I say a wooden cam. They look at you funny and start to walk away when you make the motor sound," you know wudden, wudden, wudden".
Gets them every time!!

When I was in High school a friend of mine had a Nova with a mild small block , but it sounded good. People would ask him "How big is the cam?" he would hold his hands out about a foot and a half apart to show the length and then make a circle out of his fingers to show how big around....anyone asking about carburator size got the same type of answer...lol

I tell them that I put a big block cam and lifters in my small block , when they ask "HOW" , I tell them I had it bored out for it but I had to get special push rods,,, , they usually go away and leave me alone
