If ya ain't gonna mat it and sidestep the clutch you might as well put a Powerglide in it.

I guess I deserve that comment. Mr. Zilla has a point. Going to be a long winter stewing on that.

Remember, I'm the guy who makes 4 time runs in the car, then rolls in to a $10K race and runs in Box without a box in the car. I r not smart.

I been busy, not just with my Colt but other things. I have had a chance to get the cam in the right place. And installing new Strange front calipers. I was speaking to Mr. Slant Six, Mark Goodman about cam walk. Mark was gracious to produce this cam button for me and it is exactly what I have been looking for. A HUGE shoutout out to Mark. Thank you Mark! Yee-Haw!!!

Interesting. How does it attach to the bolt head and not come off? Is it Delrin or Nylon or? Enquiring minds... Lou |

Looks good! No adjustment then? Does it just rides against the timing cover?

Dennis I am looking to sit down and eat a piece of pizza and drink a beer with you. And at the race I will dump the clutch at whatever RPM you do with your slush-box. What is it, a power silde? |

Lou, Delrin.Lou It can not come off because there is only .050 between the button and the cover. It's the same idea as the cheby button sold by a few cam companies. It fits tight to the 5/8 cam bolt, it's an interference fit. Mark made me two parts, one for a street motor and one for a race motor. I hope one day to have a race motor. I keep saying motor, you know that should be replaced with engine. BTY there is a patent on this item and I own the exclusive rights to this part. |

I can just rock the cam forward and feel the timing cover start to move. This is just like the 440 button I have in my 440 engine that I used to run years ago. |

Last year the 2step was set at 3800. New converter this year, it will be closer to 4500.
