I finally picked up Myrtle today from the Southampton port and drove her back to Newmarket, Suffolk.
I got a lot of head turning from people seeing me driving a LHD Disco in England.
...and all exhaust, new radiator, thermostat, sai, coils, wires, bleed ps, etc, blah, blah, and 30-40 more things.
I bought it 1 year ago today, and parked it 2 weeks later, lol...I'm gettin there!
Curious to see how good this Crower cam really is.
Your posts give me hope!
I have a Kent H180 Sports Torque Cam, and there is a huge difference from stock.
what are you doing with your exhaust? Anything special?
Nah, all stock exhaust.
4 new 02s.
New stock cat-back.
Neasure your exhaust manifold ports, mine were constricting the exhaust by 2-4mm’s. If you have a die grinder, and bits port match it. Didn’t take me an afternoon, and since my HG job/port and polish the engine is way happier.
Doing the heads and intake is more time consuming, and a bit more dicey due to the cost of those parts, but with the manifolds, which are widely available under $50, you don’t have much to lose.
With the new Cam I am willing to bet the engine will benefit from not having that constriction there. I have walker cats and the stock silencer.
Honestly, I am pretty happy with the power on the highway now. Passing is much much easier. I still dream of Stage 3 heads or an LS swap, but I am really happy with this engine now.

I would, but I am tired of always working on this thing as it is.
Time to is scarce. I bolted the driver side exhaust manifold on this afternoon, before running out of time...again.
Try to get the other side, 02s plugged in, and full exhaust on tomorrow...at least that's the plan.

i know that feeling. You’ll be very happy with the new Cam.
After buying 265/65/18 tires my spare would not fit on the carrier instead of buying the bracket I just flipped it now the bigger tire fits no problem and still has about 1 inch of space
In the past week I've been transferring various parts from my old Disco II to my new one. Snorkel, headlight and taillight guards, rear ladder, widow vent visors, and 18" wheels and tires. I also changed all the fluids, installed a 180 degree thermostat, and replaced the throttle body heater plate which had been leaking.
