    Went for a good run today to barossa overtaking power is awesome brakes traction easy with 3.7's. Car is so well behaved, nice low down power still just lopes along in 6th ended up averaging 75km/h and avg fuel of 11.2 and thats with heaps of roadworks and giving it a squirt every set of lights.

    Getting lots of looks at lights might have to quitenen her up a little SA is the defect state GRRRR!!!!

    Its a nice little camshaft that one BlueVE
    As you can see we spent plenty of time working on the 0-3000rpm zone of the programming as its here, most critically that many cam only installations in the L98 tend to lose out in torque over the factory cam. Go have a look at some of the graphs folks post and see for yourself

    Such are the valve events for this camshaft that it makes more torque that whole way down there, briefly 'touching down' at around 2900rpm (without looking at the graph) before pulling away again. Thats got a lot to do with the cylinder fill index which is related to the way this cam opens and closes the valves, or more to the point where it happen. Its one of the better VE camshafts I have seen. Quieten it down with a set of GT3076s, one hanging off each bank

    Re: Blackve

    Not much of an update been busy with cam swap on my sv8 which was fun and was going to get the heads ported but a guy at work is keen on the SV8 for good $$$$$ so had a chat to my engine guy today and i'm going to get the heads on the ute decked and ported. The amount of valve clearence will determine the amount decked to bump the compression up, i'll be doing the heads swap myself so should be fun also might get the FAST ported a bit to suit the heads etc.
