Very sorry to hear about this. God bless:cry

here is a better pic of the cam card.

I have a Comp cam 228/230 571/573 on a 112lsa with about 1500 miles on it. The reason i took it out was because i developed a lifter tick so i tore in to the engine. I had another cam just like it brand new. I was expecting the worst. It ended up being a lifter that just gave out. While i had it...

I got some more springs today from a differant place and they look like alot darker in color. I went and put the new springs on tonight and this time I used the stock length pushrods

no it is the 918 single

Just done the cam swap about 150 miles ago. I was putting headers on tonight and while I had the valve covers off I thought the springs looked strange. Almost all of the springs on the very top coil that sits against the retainer is broken. Why would it of done that? The cam is the Comp 228/230...

After my cam install my buddy and I were driving around and he noticed a very slight wistle or whine that would increase with RPMs. It is so slight that i couldn't hear it at first. I didn't notice it till he said something. driving down the highway I can't hear it at all but when I'm shifting...

I'll check that out. The guys on LS1tech told me I can make some rods for holding the lifters up rather then spending 80 bucks for the tool. Some guys use wood dowells that are 5/16 but I think I will try to find some metal rods that size. I don't like the idea of putting wood in my engine

well I was going to do this to my vette but I decided to cam the WS6 for now because it has an M6. And it will be alot easier to do. If it runs good I think i will get one for my vette.

Yea I was told to use longer pushrods since the basecircle is smaller on the performance cam. I am going to use the comp 7.425. Everybody tells me that will take care of the chatter including Comp Cams

i just called Comp and they told me I could use the stock length. He said I could even use the stock pushrods as long as I don't rev it past 6500. I have my stock rev limit so I shouldn't have to worry about that. he did say I had to use the 918 springs though.

not worried about the sniffer. Can I use the stock length pushrods?

I'm going to get one of these two. They are both Comp. Cams..........228/230 @.050 571/573 lift 112LSA PT# 54-428-11 or this one....224/228 @.050 534/537 lift 112LSA PT# 54-418-11.......... Will the smaller cam have the lope that we all like? I figured you guys have heard about all the cams out...

I installes longtubes and I noticed that the AC line is against the header.I can't move the line at all because it is such a tight fit. Any ideas what to do?[/IMG]

Does anybody know if a set of shorty headers off of a 2000 vette will fit a 1997?
