RE: [Chevelle-list] 66 Chevelle Cam Swap

[Dale McIntosh]

They just did a cam swap on a 66 small block on HPTV.  The only clearance problem was the rear of the bumper.  If you find that the case, you can do what they did and jack the engine up a couple of inches or drop the front bumper.  Try as you may, that cam just won't bend at that last journal. :*)   Dale McIntosh TC Gold #92/ACES #1709/NECOA #41 67SS/67 Elky DalesPlace  My 67 SS and 67 El Camino ChevelleStuff  Decoding info on 64-72 Chevelles Team67  1967 Chevelle/El Camino Specific MidwestChevelles  Midwest Chevelle Show Information I've stopped 1,505 spam messages.

Sent: Tuesday, February 24, 2004 5:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Chevelle-list] 66 Chevelle Cam Swap I need to change out the cam in my 396.  I basically want to go with a milder, closer to stock cam for better drivability.  Can I do this with the motor in the car?  It appears as though the radiator and grill will have to come out, and since I need to replace the grill anyhow, that’s not too big a deal.  Anything else I should know that would be a con to doing it in the car v. pulling the motor?  Your personal experiences are appreciated!  Thanks.   Rob S. 1966 SS396 Convertible http://www.geocities.com/rte66ss/
