You mean the time I ordered a Thumpr cam for my Corvette instead of the part to make my wife's car move under it's own power?
Other than that mishap, I've never made a mistake.... ever. :drink:
:club::clobbered: UHHHHH you mentioning CAMS, I was talking to a guys about my cam fight some years ago, INTERMITTENT rough idle, the cam lasted almost a years on the initial build, then the rough idle started, it would smooth out and run like stink from 1500 rpm up, idle was 850 rpm.....
it was SO rough it broke the wire from the alt that came out to the left of engine to the horn relay/power dist. stud.....so when it broke it flashed/arced/burnt and blew out the computer, last thing to give up was the MOV on the power input, I had goofed, and left a 30 amp test fuse into the computer, it's now down to WTF it was supposed to be...7.5 amps.....
SO, upon replacing the computer AND the expensive prom, I still had the crappy idle, but once in a while it would smooth out....
after going through injectors, induction, fuel, spark, plugs, plug wires, caps, coils, and shit, I finally gave up after fighting it for some almost ten years.....
SO I was pissed about the fuel economy, and a nice fellow on this forum happened to send me a dead stock L98 cam, so I decided to change it out a few years ago....and when pulling that damn ZZ9 cam from TPIS it found it rough as hell on 6 lobes.....lifters were prefect, and on the 'new' cam, which for years now, has been running fine.....
SO talking to this guy the other day, he said he faced the same shit on a Comp cam/Crane?? install not so long ago...a roller cam, same shit, Mustang.....go effing figger.....caused by a CAM, INTERMITTENT rough idle....how in the HELL????
